A Seamless Solution for Missing Teeth
Missing teeth can affect more than just your smile — they can lead to shifting, bite problems, and changes in how you chew or speak. At the San Marino office of Dr. Fary Yassamy, we use custom dental bridges to restore both the appearance and function of your smile with natural-looking, long-lasting results.
With advanced training in cosmetic and neuromuscular dentistry, Dr. Yassamy ensures every bridge is precisely crafted to restore balance, comfort, and beauty — for a smile that looks and feels complete.
Patients from San Marino and South Pasadena choose our practice for restorations that don’t just fill gaps — they support whole-mouth health.
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth (or teeth) between adjacent natural teeth or implants. Bridges:
- Prevent teeth from shifting out of place
- Maintain proper bite alignment
- Restore ability to chew and speak comfortably
- Improve facial symmetry and smile aesthetics
Unlike removable partial dentures, bridges are permanently placed and feel like your natural teeth.
Types of Bridges We Offer
Dr. Yassamy offers several types of bridges, selected based on your oral health, number of missing teeth, and long-term goals:
1. Traditional Dental Bridges
- Supported by natural teeth on either side of the gap
- Requires crowns on the supporting teeth
- Ideal for healthy surrounding teeth and single-tooth gaps
2. Implant-Supported Bridges
- Anchored to dental implants instead of natural teeth
- Often used when multiple teeth are missing or natural teeth are not strong enough
- Helps preserve bone structure in the jaw
We always take a conservative, whole-health approach — recommending only what will best restore your smile’s appearance and long-term stability.
Our Dental Bridge Process
Here’s what to expect during your dental bridge treatment:
- Comprehensive evaluation
We assess your teeth, gums, bite, and bone structure to determine the best restoration. - Preparation and impressions
Supporting teeth (if applicable) are reshaped, and digital or traditional impressions are taken. - Temporary bridge placement
You may receive a temporary bridge to protect the area while your permanent one is being crafted. - Final placement
Your custom bridge is cemented or attached to implants for a seamless, secure fit. - Ongoing care
We provide detailed instructions on how to clean and maintain your bridge for long-term success.
We may also recommend a nightguard if clenching or grinding is present, to help preserve your bridge and bite.

How long do dental bridges last?
With proper care, bridges can last 10–15 years or longer. Regular checkups and daily cleaning are essential.
Are bridges better than implants?
Each has its place. Dental implants are ideal for long-term bone support, while bridges may be quicker or more cost-effective in certain situations.
Will my bridge look natural?
Yes. We design every bridge to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and function. Dr. Yassamy works with top dental labs for lifelike results.
Can I eat normally with a bridge?
Absolutely. Once your bridge is placed, you’ll regain full chewing function — just avoid very sticky or hard foods initially.
Does insurance cover dental bridges?
Most PPO insurance plans cover a portion of bridge treatment. Our team will help you understand your benefits and financing options.
