Dental Bridges

What is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the teeth beside the gap.

Missing teeth can cause shifting, bone loss, changes in bite and difficulty chewing.

A bridge restores balance, function and aesthetics to your smile.

A bridge typically consists of:

  • A false tooth (pontic) replacing the missing tooth
  • Crowns on the neighbouring teeth that support the bridge


Once cemented, the bridge becomes a strong, fixed part of your mouth that functions like natural teeth.

Dental Bridge Treatment Options

Traditional Fixed Bridge

Crowns on both sides support a false tooth in the middle.

Cantilever Bridge

Used when there is only one supporting tooth.

Maryland (Resin-Bonded) Bridge

Uses metal or porcelain “wings” bonded to the back of adjacent teeth; minimally invasive.

Implant-Supported Bridge

Uses dental implants instead of natural teeth for support—ideal for multiple missing teeth.

How Bridge Treatment Works

1

Consultation & Planning

Your dentist assesses the gap and the strength of the supporting teeth.

2

Tooth Preparation

The adjacent teeth are shaped to hold the supporting crowns.

3

Impressions/Scans

A custom bridge is designed for exact fit and colour matching.

4

Temporary Bridge

Placed to protect teeth while the final bridge is being made.

5

Final Bridge Placement

The bridge is cemented permanently and adjusted for comfort and bite.
