At Assiniboine Dental Group, our general dentists use bridges to replace missing teeth to help maintain your long-term oral health and overall health.
What is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a dental restoration that is used to fill a gap caused by a missing tooth or a row of missing teeth. It is permanently fixed to the teeth (whether natural teeth, dental implants or dental crowns) on each side of the gap.
Replace Missing Teeth & Restore Your Oral Health
Your dentist will bond a dental bridge to existing natural teeth or to dental implants or crowns that have been placed on either side of the gap in your teeth.
By using a dental bridge, your dentist will help protect your remaining teeth from shifting, which can lead to more serious issues like gum disease.
Benefits of Bridges
Dental bridges can help to restore the natural contour of your teeth, as well as the bite between your upper and lower teeth. They are custom made for you and barely noticeable.
