A Trusted Solution for Missing Teeth
What Is Dental Bridgework?

Dental bridgework is a reliable, long-lasting treatment used to replace one or more missing teeth. It quite literally "bridges the gap" left behind, bringing back full function and appearance without the need for surgery.Whether tooth loss has affected your eating, speech, or self-esteem, a custom-made dental bridge can offer a seamless solution that looks and feels like your natural teeth.

Who Is Suitable for a Dental Bridge?

In order to be a candidate for dental bridgework, the natural teeth on either side of the gap must be strong enough to support the restoration. If they’re not, your dentist may recommend a dental implant as an alternative.
During your initial consultation, we’ll carry out a full assessment to help you make the best decision for your long-term oral health and appearance.

FAQs

What is dental bridgework?
Dental bridgework is a fixed dental restoration used to replace missing teeth. It’s supported by the natural teeth or implants on either side of the gap and offers a non-surgical alternative to implants.

How is dental bridgework carried out?
First, your dentist will take a scan of your teeth. The supporting teeth are gently shaped, and a temporary bridge is fitted. Two weeks later, your permanent bridge is placed for long-lasting results.

Who should consider dental bridgework?
Anyone missing one or more teeth due to decay, trauma, or gum disease may benefit from a dental bridge. Suitability depends on the condition of the surrounding teeth and gums.

Is bridgework a permanent solution?
Dental bridges can last 5 to 15 years or longer with proper oral care and regular check-ups. Good hygiene is key to ensuring the longevity of your bridge.

How long does the whole process take?
Most patients complete treatment within two weeks. You’ll wear a temporary bridge during that time, so you never go without a complete smile.
