What is an Implant-Restored Fixed Bridge?
With a fixed implant bridge, Dr. Marlin and Dr. Talmazov will utilize dental implants placed in the jawbone (foundation) and porcelain prosthesis to replace your missing teeth (fixed bridge). In addition to preserving the jawbone and surrounding teeth, bridges can help maintain the shape of your smile and prevent future dental complications.
What is the Difference Between an Implant-Supported Fixed Bridge and Other Dental Bridges?
There are four primary types of dental bridges:
- Traditional fixed bridges
- Cantilever bridges
- Maryland bonded bridges
- Implant-supported fixed bridge
While implant-supported bridges are similar in nature to traditional bridges, implant-supported bridges attach to small titanium posts embedded in the jaw instead of being supported by dental crowns placed over adjacent teeth. The precise number of posts that Dr. Marlin and Dr. Talmazov will place depends on the bridge’s size.
Why Would I Consider a Dental Implant-Restored Fixed Bridge in Washington DC?
Having missing teeth can affect you in many ways—physically, mentally, and emotionally. When replacing three teeth in a row, a fixed bridge anchored to dental implants is the only fixed alternative. A dental bridge can improve many of the challenges that missing teeth bring, including:
- restoring your smile
- preserving your jawbone and facial appearance
- keeping your remaining teeth in alignment
- re-adjusting your bite
- correcting your speech and pronunciation
- reclaiming the ability to chew properly

Dental Implant-Restored Fixed Bridge Case Study
The fixed bridge seated over multiple abutments that are, in turn, seated over multiple dental implants requires a very sophisticated surgical and restorative technique that a highly skilled prosthodontist can only achieve.
The patient in this example was very adamant about not having any of the “Same Day Implants” treatment regimens. She wanted crowns on custom abutments. She had extensive bone loss around her remaining upper teeth that needed to be replaced with multiple implants. Pink porcelain was used to replicate the missing gingiva (gum tissue).
