Dental Bridges

Dental Bridges

One way to replace a missing tooth is using a dental bridge. Here the dentist can close the gap -or bridge- the gap using a dental bridge or false tooth. It is held in place by the abutment teeth on either side of the gap.

There are a few different types of bridges commonly used. They depend on the location of your missing tooth and the location and condition of the adjacent teeth.

Adhesive bridges have a metal wing that adheres to the adjacent tooth and are an easy way to replace a missing tooth and are very minimally invasive.

Some bridges need to use a crown to support the false tooth. Your dentist can discuss all the options available with you.

What are dental bridges made off?

Likes crowns and veneers, they can be made from a variety of materials but are typically made from porcelain as it is tooth coloured and aesthetically blends in with your natural teeth and has a hidden layer of metal underneath for strength.  There are other materials available which your dentist can discuss with you.

How long do dental bridges last?

Dental bridges are extremely durable and can survive for several years with proper care and maintenance. Your dentist at Marylebone Dental Care will explain the proper aftercare needed to ensure your bridges last as long as possible.
