Home - Treatments - bridges

A dental bridge is a restoration, which is designed to replace a missing tooth.

A bridge is made from crowns and a false tooth, which is known as a pontic. The aim of the bridge is to restore function to the mouth and create an attractive, natural looking smile. There are different types of bridge to replace different teeth; the most commonly used dental bridge is a traditional fixed bridge.

Crowns and bridges should last for several years provided that they are well looked-after.
