Bridges

Restore your smile with a natural-looking solution

Dental bridges offer a reliable and effective way to replace one or more missing teeth. By filling gaps in your smile, they help restore both function and appearance, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.

Whether you’ve lost a tooth due to decay, injury, or gum disease, a dental bridge can provide a long-lasting and natural-looking result.

What are dental bridges?

A dental bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth that are used to “bridge” the gap left by missing teeth.

The bridge is supported by the natural teeth on either side of the space, which are usually fitted with crowns to hold the restoration securely in place. Once fitted, the bridge is carefully matched to the shape and colour of your existing teeth for a seamless finish.


Benefits of dental bridges

  • Restores your smile and confidence
  • Improves chewing and speaking ability
  • Prevents surrounding teeth from shifting out of position
  • Maintains the natural shape of your face
  • Provides a fixed, stable solution

With the right care, dental bridges can be a durable and long-lasting option for replacing missing teeth.

What does the process for dental bridge treatment involve?

Step 1: Consultation and assessment
We begin by assessing your oral health and discussing your treatment options to ensure a bridge is suitable for you.

Step 2: Tooth preparation
The supporting teeth are carefully prepared so that crowns can be placed to hold the bridge securely.

Step 3: Impressions and design
We take detailed impressions of your teeth to create a custom-made bridge that fits comfortably and looks natural.

Step 4: Temporary bridge (if needed)
A temporary bridge may be fitted while your final restoration is being created.

Step 5: Bridge fitting
Your custom bridge is fitted, adjusted, and secured in place to ensure a comfortable bite and natural appearance.


Caring for your dental bridge

Dental bridges are designed to be strong and durable, but good oral hygiene is essential to keep them in excellent condition.

  • Brush twice daily using fluoride toothpaste
  • Clean carefully around the bridge and between teeth
  • Attend regular dental check-ups and hygiene appointments
  • Avoid biting on very hard foods or objects

Our team will show you how to clean around your bridge effectively to help maintain your oral health.
