Bridges

​​​​​​​

There are many different treatments available for badly damaged or decayed teeth, but unfortunately, sometimes a tooth is beyond repair and can leave an unsightly gap in your smile. Gaps between your teeth can seriously knock your confidence, and can even have a negative impact on the functionality of your other teeth and the overall use of your mouth since, over time, your remaining teeth can shift around, causing misalignment as well as a range of other associated dental problems.

Dental bridges fill the gap where the missing tooth would have been by using a false tooth, which looks and feels just like the real thing.

The false tooth also holds the remaining teeth either side in place so that they don’t shift into that space.
 

What are the benefits of dental bridges?

There are a number of benefits of having a dental bridge. They can:

• Prevent your remaining teeth from shifting position.

• Help you bite and/or chew properly.

• Correct your bite.

• Properly align your jaw.

• Maintain the shape of your face.

• Give you a great smile.
