Dental Bridges
In Gulf Breeze, FL
Spaces caused by one or more missing teeth can present many problems—from painful chewing to embarrassment when smiling, the consequences affect both your health and your confidence. At Barrineau DDS, we provide dental bridges as a reliable solution for missing teeth.
What is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge can fill a gap in your smile. A bridge consists of crowns for the teeth on each side of the missing tooth and a false tooth or teeth in between. These false teeth are called pontics. Bridges can be made from porcelain fused to metal or full ceramic.
Dr. Barrineau and our team carefully craft dental bridges that not only function seamlessly but also complement your natural smile through precise shape, size, and shade matching.
In addition to improving your dental health and restoring the proper functioning of your mouth, bridges can also help enhance your aesthetics by maintaining the natural shape of your face supporting your lips and cheeks.

A dental bridge, made from materials such as full ceramic or porcelain fused to metal, offers both strength and natural beauty for those seeking tooth replacement. By restoring the space between your teeth, a dental bridge helps you regain both the function of your smile and the confidence it brings.

Are Bridges Permanent?
Yes, they are. “Permanent” means you’ll need your dentist to remove them, unlike dentures. Depending on wear, care, and materials, a bridge will last 5–15 years.
How Many Teeth Can a Bridge Restore?
Most bridges replace 1–3 teeth, though in some rare cases, up to 4 missing teeth can be restored with a dental bridge.
