Dental Bridge
Dental Bridge Specialists
At Heathmont Dental, we provide high-quality dental bridge solutions to help restore your smile and improve your oral function.
A dental bridge is an effective option for replacing one or more missing teeth, bridging the gap and preventing the surrounding teeth from shifting. Our skilled team customises each bridge to match your natural teeth, ensuring a comfortable fit and a seamless appearance.
Using durable materials, we focus on both aesthetics and functionality, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods without worry. With a dental bridge, you can regain your confidence and maintain the health of your smile for years to come.
Dental Bridge vs Dental Implant
When considering tooth replacement options, dental bridges and dental implants each have distinct advantages. A dental bridge consists of artificial teeth anchored to adjacent natural teeth, making it a quicker and less invasive procedure, often completed in just a few visits. However, bridges rely on the health of surrounding teeth for support and typically last 5 to 15 years before requiring replacement.
In contrast, dental implants involve surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone, providing a durable and long-lasting solution that can last a lifetime with proper care. While implants preserve jawbone density and function like natural teeth, they require a longer treatment time and a surgical procedure, resulting in higher initial costs. Ultimately, the best choice depends on individual circumstances, and our team at Heathmont Dental is here to help you evaluate your options for a healthy, beautiful smile.
What Is the Process for Getting a Dental Bridge?
Getting a dental bridge begins with an initial consultation to evaluate your oral health and determine if a bridge is suitable. After preparing the adjacent teeth, we take impressions to create a custom bridge, placing a temporary one while the permanent bridge is made.
During your follow-up appointment, we will securely place the permanent bridge and make any necessary adjustments. We’ll also provide care instructions to ensure its longevity and schedule regular check-ups to monitor your oral health, aiming to restore your smile with comfort and functionality.
