Replace Multiple Missing Teeth Consecutively Without Sacrificing Natural Adjacent Teeth
When you are missing three or four consecutive teeth in a row, placing an individual implant for every single tooth is often unnecessary and financially inefficient. An Implant-Supported Bridge uses two or three robust dental implants at opposite ends of the gap to anchor a continuous bridge of lifelike replacement teeth.
Unlike traditional tooth-supported bridges—which require grinding down healthy natural enamel on adjacent teeth to serve as anchor caps—an implant-supported bridge is completely self-supporting. Natural adjacent teeth remain untouched, unharmed, and protected against decay and nerve trauma.
At Main Line Dental Arts, our periodontists utilize precision 3D digital planning to ensure ideal spacing, bone integration, and optimal cosmetic harmony.
You may benefit from this treatment if you experience any of the following:
We analyze the edentulous space and jawbone height using 3D CBCT scans to calculate the optimal diameter and placement angle for each implant anchor.
Two or more titanium implant fixtures are placed into the bone at the ends of the span with computer-guided surgical precision.
Healing abutments are placed to guide the gum tissue into natural scalloped arches while the implants permanently bond with the jawbone over 8 to 12 weeks.
Your custom ceramic or zirconia multi-unit bridge is permanently secured to the implant abutments, completing your smile and restoring chewing capability.
Zero damage or crown prep required on healthy teeth adjacent to the gap.
Replaces 3 to 4 teeth with just 2 implants, saving significant cost.
Implants stimulate bone density, preventing the hollow sunken ridge common under partials.
Permanent and non-removable; brush and floss just like natural teeth.
Practical instructions to ensure an anxiety-free visit and smooth, rapid healing.
What to expect from your initial specialist consultation through complete recovery.
High-resolution 3D CBCT scan to map bone density, nerve paths, and simulate virtual implant placement.
Atraumatic surgical fixture placement with gentle local anesthesia and optional relaxation sedation.
Biological fusion where bone cells integrate directly onto titanium surface over 8 to 12 weeks.
Custom zirconia or porcelain crown/bridge delivery, co-managed with your restorative dentist.
Periodontists undergo 3 additional years of accredited university surgical residency beyond dental school, focusing exclusively on jawbone biology, tissue regeneration, and micro-precision implant placement. We partner closely with your family dentist to deliver lasting clinical excellence.
Our board-certified periodontists, Dr. Borguet, Dr. Hodgson, and Dr. Susanin, are here to help restore your oral health with compassionate, personalized care.
