Dental Bridges

TREATMENTS

Replace missing teeth with strong, durable bridges for a seamless smile.

About the treatment

A dental bridge replaces missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to adjacent natural teeth or implants. It restores function, maintains bite alignment, and prevents teeth from shifting.

What is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge consists of a false tooth (pontic) supported by crowns or implants on either side. It is an excellent solution for filling gaps left by missing teeth.

Bridges help:

Restore chewing ability and clear speech.
Prevent surrounding teeth from shifting.
Improve aesthetics and confidence.

Types of Dental Bridges

Pros: Durable and natural-looking.
