Bridges provide a fixed option for replacing one or more missing teeth in a row.
A dental bridge is one or more prosthetic teeth that fills the gap left by a missing tooth or multiple teeth. A bridge can be attached to existing natural teeth that have been reinforced with crowns for extra support, or to replace a front missing tooth a bridge can be attached by clasps bonded to the back of neighbouring teeth.

Our treatment process for a bridge involves a number of appointments:
With good oral hygiene, a dental bridge typically lasts between 10 and 15 years before needing to be replaced.
Like all dental implant alternatives, there are pros and cons to be mindful of when choosing a solution that’s right for you.
Depending on your circumstances, the long-term benefit of choosing dental implants may outweigh the risks associated with a bridge. For more information about bridges, contact our friendly team today.

Dental bridges last between 5 to 15 years on average, depending on how well they are cared for and the amount of wear and tear.

Bridges can be a suitable option when dentures are loose-fitting, uncomfortable or lacking aesthetically, or when dental implants are not a viable option.
