Bridges

A bridge is a way of replacing missing teeth, usually made from either porcelain and/or metal. This can restore both aesthetics and function.

The tooth to replace the missing one (pontic) is usually attached to either one or two teeth (abutment). This can be done in a number of ways as a resin bonded bridge /a fibre bridge or as a fixed bridge. There are a number of factors which can decide the best option for each individual case.

Bridges are usually made over two appointments the first stage as a preparation and impression appointment with the fit around a week later.

Fibre Bridges are a single visit treatment as the bridge is built up and contoured by the dentist at the appointment.
