Dental Bridges in Costa Rica
Restore your Smile and Functionality
The oral cavity is like a gear: when one piece is missing, the whole system is affected. The absence of one or more teeth can generate esthetic and functional problems that compromise chewing, speech and oral health in general.
At Sonrisa Para Todoswe offer treatments of fixed dental bridges in Costa Ricaone of the most effective solutions to restore your smile and give it back its natural function.
What are Dental Bridges?
The dental bridges are fixed prostheses that replace one or more missing teeth, restoring esthetics, functionality and confidence. They work by resting on adjacent teeth prepared as abutments or, in some cases, on dental implants.
Restore chewing
Improve phonation
Prevent movement of adjacent teeth
Restore the esthetic harmony of the smile
They are a highly recommended alternative when the adjacent teeth are able to support the prosthesis.
Types and Materials of Dental Bridges
In our clinic and our own laboratory, we manufacture fixed bridges with state-of-the-art materials that guarantee resistance and esthetics:
| Material | Main advantages |
|---|---|
| Zirconium | Exceptional strength and natural finish |
| Lithium disilicate | High aesthetics + balanced resistance |
| Metal with porcelain | Durability and reliable aesthetics |
Each case is evaluated in a personalized way to choose the most appropriate material according to the bite, the number of teeth to be restored and the esthetic needs of the patient.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre puentes dentales en Costa Rica
Do dental bridges damage adjacent teeth?
Traditional bridges require preparation of the adjacent teeth, which involves controlled wear. In cases where these teeth already need restoration (crowns), this is not a problem. For patients with healthy adjacent teeth, implant-supported bridges are an alternative that preserves them intact.
How long does it take to complete a dental bridge treatment?
The entire process generally requires 2-3 visits spread over 2-3 weeks for traditional bridges. In case of implant-supported bridges, the total time may be extended to 3-6 months due to the period required for osseointegration.
Does chewing with a dental bridge feel different?
Initially there may be a short period of adaptation (1-2 weeks), but most patients quickly get used to it and soon feel the bridge as a natural part of their mouth.
What is the main difference between a dental bridge and an implant?
While an implant individually replaces the root of each missing tooth, a bridge spans the gap using adjacent teeth or implants for support. Implants preserve bone better in the long term, while bridges can be a quicker and, in some cases, more economical solution initially.
How long do dental bridges last?
Do dental bridges look natural?
Yes, with materials such as zirconium or lithium disilicate we achieve an appearance very similar to natural teeth.
Are dental implants or dental bridges better?
Does it hurt to have a dental bridge?
