If you or your child has congenitally missing teeth, finding the right solution can feel overwhelming. Many dental providers only offer traditional bridges or implants as options, but at Eggert Family Dentistry in North Oaks, MN, Dr. Elizabeth Eggert and Dr. Jeff Eggert offer a unique alternative—composite bonded bridges. These innovative bridges are a rare treatment option, with only a few providers in the country offering them. We’ve been working with teenagers for years, helping them navigate these transitional years with confidence by covering up the gaps caused by missing teeth.
What makes composite bonded bridges so special? Unlike traditional bridges, they don’t require significant alteration of neighboring teeth. Instead, a composite material is carefully bonded to adjacent teeth, creating a natural-looking replacement that fills in the gap seamlessly. This is especially beneficial for younger patients who may not be ready for permanent solutions like implants. A composite bonded bridge provides a non-invasive way to restore the look and function of their smile without permanent changes to their developing teeth.
At Eggert Family Dentistry, we understand how difficult it can be for teenagers to deal with missing teeth, particularly during such formative years. Dr. Elizabeth and Dr. Jeff Eggert have been perfecting this technique to ensure that your child can smile confidently and enjoy life without worrying about gaps in their smile. Composite bonded bridges offer a conservative, affordable solution that allows your child to transition through their teenage years without feeling self-conscious about their teeth.
