Dental Bridges
Replace one or more missing teeth quickly and painlessly. A dental bridge restores your smile without the need for jaw surgery, unlike dental implants.
Replace a Missing Tooth with a Dental Bridge
A dental bridge is a fixed, fully functional replacement for a missing tooth. Unlike dental implants, it does not require surgery in the jaw.
To place a bridge, we first prepare the neighbouring teeth, which will support the bridge and the replacement tooth. The treatment is performed under local anaesthesia, so it is painless and comfortable for the patient.
After losing a tooth, it is important to fill the gap as soon as possible, as the remaining teeth may start to shift. At Smille Dental Clinic, we first create a temporary bridge for you. Our laboratory then carefully prepares the final bridge so that it matches the natural shade of your teeth. The result is designed to blend naturally with your smile.
How Is a Dental Bridge Placed?
- The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, so you will not feel pain.
- The dentist selects the teeth that will support the bridge, treats them and prepares them.
- A temporary bridge is then made to fill the gap while the final bridge is being prepared.
- A scan or impression of your jaws is taken, an accurate model is created and the appropriate shade is selected.
- The final bridge is first checked for fit and then attached comfortably and painlessly.
