Bridges

If you’ve got one or more missing teeth, then a dental bridge could be the ideal solution for restoring your smile.

Known as ‘pontics’, bridges consist of one or more false teeth and are attached to other teeth by crowns, filling any unsightly gaps. And although this treatment is becoming less popular in favour of dental implants, it still offers a viable solution.

Different types of dental bridges are available:

Traditional Fixed Bridges are made from porcelain and comprise of two crowns cemented to teeth on either side of the gap. These last around 10 years.
Resin Bonded Bridges are used when the teeth on either side of the gaps are healthy and do not need much preparation. This method is usually used on front teeth.
Cantilever Bridges are used when there are only teeth on one side, so the pontic needs to stretch over adjacent teeth.
