A short guide to dental bridges, Treatment options at ClearCare Periodontal & Implant Centre

A bridge is a non removable restoration supported and retained by natural teeth or by implants. A bridge will replace one or more missing teeth and fill the gaps in your smile. It will allow your mouth to function properly while distributing the forces in your bite. A bridge will also prevent existing teeth from moving out of position.

A bridge is a non-surgical way to replace one or many teeth. A bridge uses the adjacent teeth as anchors to support the missing tooth or teeth. With today’s dental advancements, a bridge can be fabricated in a fairly short period of time using a metal or non-metal foundation. Don’t let that missing tooth affect the way you speak, eat, and smile. Bridges yield immediate results that last a lifetime. Ask your dentist what type of bridge may be right for you.
