How Do Dental Bridges Work?
Dental bridges are artificial teeth that fill missing gaps in your smile and are secured into place by the existing surrounding teeth. Our team ensure that your dental bridge looks just like your natural teeth as they are made to measure and colour-matched to your existing teeth for an even and consistent smile.
Where an appropriate solution, dental bridges are a great alternative to implants as they are much less invasive and a lot more affordable. This makes them a great option for those who want a fixed alternative to dentures but may be hesitant to opt for implants straight away.
Is a Dental Bridge Right For You?
If your confidence is being knocked by having gaps in your smile, then a dental bridge may be an ideal option. Whether it’s one missing tooth or several, if left over time your remaining healthy teeth can become damaged and weakened, and your jawbone may start to deteriorate. Opting for a dental bridge can resolve these issues, preventing further bone loss and supporting your remaining teeth at the same time.
There are a number of different types of dental bridges, including fixed bridges, which our Prosthodontist can fit to ensure your new smile is full and strong enough for you to live life as normal – allowing you to eat and socialise freely.
Although a dental bridge may not be suitable for all types of tooth loss, they’ve proven a fantastic solution for many of our patients who have said their bridge has allowed them to smile with confidence again. If you’re unsure whether a bridge is right for you, get in touch with our team of experts who’d be glad to help.
