Restore Your Smile
Bridges fill the gaps left by missing teeth, giving you a complete and confident smile.
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth with a connected restoration. We can discuss whether a bridge fits your oral health, remaining teeth, and preferences.
A dental bridge is a custom-made replacement that bridges the gap left by one or more missing teeth. Your dentist designs each bridge to match your natural teeth, anchoring it to the healthy teeth on either side of the gap or to dental implants. At Wildomar Smiles Dentistry we use durable materials so your bridge looks, feels, and works like the teeth around it.
Bridges fill the gaps left by missing teeth, giving you a complete and confident smile.
Bridges allow you to eat, speak, and smile naturally again, restoring your ability to enjoy your favorite foods and express yourself confidently.
A bridge is designed for long-term use. How long yours lasts depends on the supporting teeth, your bite, and day-to-day cleaning around it.
Bridges prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of place, which can lead to bite problems and further tooth loss.
Here is what each stage of treatment usually involves. Your dentist will talk you through anything that differs in your case.
Request an AppointmentWe look at the gap, the teeth on either side, and your gums, then discuss whether a bridge suits your situation.
For a tooth-supported bridge, the teeth beside the gap are shaped so crowns can fit over them.
We take the measurements and records used to make a bridge that matches your teeth and bite.
The bridge is tried in, adjusted for fit and bite, and then fixed in place. We show you how to clean underneath it.

Real Google reviews from patients of Wildomar Smiles Dentistry.
Read our reviews on GoogleI had a crown installed and they did an awesome job, I would recommend this place for your dentist
I had a crown fall out during dinner last night, so I called Wildomar denistry to see if I could get in. I was told to come in and they would try to fit me in. About half an hour later, I was leaving with my crown reattached. Double thumbs up 👍 and an easy five star rating. Thank you so much!
Dr. Koushyar and his team are truly exceptional! After being told I needed multiple crowns by another dentist, I was relieved to get a second opinion from Dr. Koushyar. He thoroughly examined my teeth and determined that I only needed a few simple fillings. The entire experience was fantastic. Dr. Koushyar was gentle and explained everything clearly, and the team was incredibly friendly and caring. If you're looking for an honest, skilled, and compassionate dentist, look no further! Highly recommend!
So very happy with the service that this office provides! I needed to find a local dentist, to fix a cracked crown I had on a front tooth. I searched several dental groups in the area, and after seeing the google reviews for Velk Dentistry, I decided to try them. BEST dentist I've ever been to in my 58 years! I received a thorough exam, and Dr. Velk explained everything as he went along. The crown was repaired and I'll be returning for work that needs to be done on other teeth. I would highly recommend this dental office to family and friends.
My wife and I have been going to both Erik & Angela Velk since moving to Murrieta in 1999. We feel like family, and are always treated with extra care.A few years ago I had a painful problem with an old crown on a weekend, and Dr. Erik came in on a Saturday afternoon and treated me which kept me from having to suffer through the weekend.One thing that is very impressive is that the doctors have kept current with all of the technology as it pertains to giving the patients the best treatment options.We highly recommend Velk Family Dentistry to everyone.
Quick and easy crown
Spending nearly 10 years looking for the right dentist, I am so grateful to find Velk Family Dentistry. So many other dentists I've been to in the inland empire I felt we're trying to rip me off like saying I needed 3 crowns and giving me 4 different pricing options and etc. It felt like I was buying a car! Doctor Eric is so personable, gentle, and most important, upfront and explains the details to you that I felt so comfortable and confident under his care. Plus he performs root canals and crowns himself! All the other dentists I've seen always referred me to a specialist but this man does it all! That's how skilled he is! The same night after I did my root canal he even called me personally to make sure everything felt fine and that I was doing good. You cannot go wrong making Velk Family Dentistry your family dentist! From someone who is afraid of the dentist, I highly recommend coming here.

Miss Allison provides you with a clean, printed out sheet that shows your Journey through what needs to be done , how much it will cost, and a time frame…. Compared to the prior dentist, who fired his best employee and brought in his wife who scribbled down things and highlighted in yellow and purple highlighter pens - “discounts,” — of which we have yet to be reimbursed—- The Velk Family Dentistry is a Blessing beyond a Blessing……With Immense Gratitude to Every Member of this Miraculous Team……We couldn’t recommend You All More-!!Douglas Crowell, Esq.AndAshley Collins
A bridge affects the teeth on either side of the gap, so the decision deserves a proper conversation before anyone picks up a drill. Why patients choose us for it:

Yes. Cosmetic dental bridges replace missing teeth and are designed to match the teeth on either side.
Like crowns, a well-cared-for dental bridge can last 5-15 years in most cases. Good oral hygiene is essential!
Dental bridges are an affordable tooth replacement option. The price of a dental bridge in Wildomar depends on several factors, including the type of materials used, the number of teeth affected, whether implants are involved, and if you're using any insurance benefits. On average, most bridges range between $500-$1500 per tooth. At Wildomar Smiles Dentistry, we provide each patient with a detailed treatment plan outlining all fees and estimated benefits so that you know what to expect before scheduling the treatment.
Although your bridge will not decay, bacteria can still accumulate around the margins of your restoration and affect your supporting teeth. To ensure your bridge lasts as long as possible, it's important to: Brush around your bridge twice a day Floss around and under your bridge daily (or use a water flosser) Plan routine dental visits every six months Avoid biting on hard or extremely sticky foods
