Bridgework

Bridges

Bridges are available to restore spaces if you want a fixed solution to your tooth loss. The teeth adjacent to the space are shaped and impressions taken. The bridge is then cemented or bonded to replace the missing tooth or teeth. Bridges are a good solution but you can also consider dental implants.

Bridges are units of false teeth that are fixed to remaining natural teeth to fill a gap. A bridge may take the place of one or more missing teeth and the results can be excellent with good function and aesthetic results. With careful maintenance a well-made bridge can last many years. The bone in the jaw surrounding the missing tooth or teeth can continue to recede.
