About dental bridges

Dental bridges are so-called because they bridge the gap between two teeth when a tooth has been lost through injury, trauma or as a result of dental disease. The aim of the bridge is to replace the missing tooth and create a natural looking smile.

Bridges can be made from various materials and we often recommend porcelain or porcelain fused to metal bridges for the best aesthetic outcome. The bridge is designed to blend in with the neighbouring teeth and once the porcelain bridge is in place, you shouldn’t be able to tell the difference between the false tooth and the rest of the teeth.

There are 3 main types of dental bridge, including the traditional fixed bridge, the cantilever bridge and the resin-bonded bridge, which is also known as a Maryland bridge. The most common type of bridge is the fixed bridge, which is made from a false tooth, and is anchored by a dental crown on each side.

What are the advantages of a dental bridge?

Dental bridges are durable and aesthetically pleasing and they have functional benefits, as well as cosmetic advantages. Bridges should last around 10-15 years and the treatment process is simple and much less invasive than dental implant treatment. Treatment is usually complete within 2 weeks and there is very little pain involved.
