Dental Bridge

What are dental bridges?

Dental bridges are fixed prosthetic replacements that replace one or more missing teeth.

Dental bridges are fixed prosthetic replacements that replace one or more missing teeth. The bridge is attached to adjacent healthy teeth or dental implants, creating a natural-looking connection in the place of lost teeth. This type of replacement is fixed and non-removable, providing comfort when speaking and chewing and aesthetically complementing your smile.

Main characteristics:

  • Fixed replacement – cannot be removed.
  • Used to replace one or more lost teeth.
  • It is supported by healthy teeth or implants adjacent to the gap.
  • Made from high-quality materials such as ceramic or zirconium.

Who they are suitable for:

  • For patients who have lost one or more teeth and are looking for a stable solution.
  • For those who want an aesthetically perfect and functional tooth replacement.
  • For patients who do not want or cannot undergo implantation.

Advantages of dental bridges:

  • Immediate improvement in the aesthetics and function of the teeth.
  • Strength and stability in everyday use.
  • Restoration of proper bite and chewing ability.
  • Prevents adjacent teeth from shifting into the gap left by the lost tooth.
