Dental Bridges
Dental Bridges are one of the great solutions for a missing tooth or teeth. they help fill the gaps from missing teeth, using the neighbouring teeth for support. Dental Bridges are usually made from porcelain. These can work alongside other treatments such as dental crowns and dental implants.
- They not only improve appearance but also distribute bite pressure evenly to prevent other teeth from shifting into the space.
- Depending on the health of adjacent teeth, you can opt for a traditional dental bridge with dental crowns, or a bonded bridge with wings glued to your teeth.
- A traditional dental bridge involves two dental crowns joined by a false tooth.
- A bonded bridge is when the false tooth has wings that are then glued to the backs of neighbouring teeth to secure it.
Dental bridges need the support of other teeth and so a full oral check will be needed to determine whether they are a suitable choice for you. Other factors may also play a role such as gum health. It is important that you discuss any concerns you may have with our team.
If you are thinking of dental bridges as part of your smile journey, then consult with our team at Spondon Dental in Derby to find the right type for you.
