Dental Bridges

Dental bridge acts as a bridge where there is a gap in the teeth. Crowns are fixed on the teeth either side of the gap, these are then joined by a false tooth which bridges the gap. The dental bridge is permanent and will be matched in colour to your other teeth so the appearance of the new tooth is natural. The bridge stops the adjacent teeth from moving.

Missing or crooked teeth can affect your smile, confidence and facial appearance. Missing teeth increase the chance of food accumulating in the gap, which may cause gum disease and tooth decay. A missing tooth may have an impact on bone loss unless replaced. In addition, it can also be uncomfortable when eating. Adjacent teeth start to lean into the space of the missing tooth and alter the way upper and lower teeth bite.

The Dental Bridge Procedure

 

Step 1

The dentist will give you a local anaesthetic prior to the procedure. The dentist will then start by preparing your teeth on either side of the gap as trimming is needed to accommodate the crown.

STEP 2

The dentist will then take an impression of your teeth using special dental silicone to make the mould. This mould will be sent to a dental laboratory to prepare the dental bridge and bridges. You will receive a temporary dental bridge until the permanent dental bridge is ready.

STEP 3

The dentist will ensure that the natural colour of your teeth match the dental bridge. When the permanent dental bridge is ready, the temporary bridge will be removed and the bridge fitted.

Say About Us

I used to suffer anxiety when visiting the dentist due to a bad experience years ago, this resulted in me not going for years! Abbey dental have changed all that for me, I no longer stress or worry about going and their treatment is second to none. They have given me the confidence again and have not judged me or looked down at me. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
As soon as you walk in to Abbey Dental Practice you are welcomed with a friendly face. Rob and his team are friendly, professional, but above all they put you at ease. I have never had a fear of the dentist, but Abbey Dental Practice is the most customer friendly dentist I have ever been registered with. Would highly recommend without hesitation.
As someone who has been afraid of going to the dentist for many years, I was fortunate to go to Abbey Dental Practice. Everyone there is so helpful and friendly and Robert Handley is so calming and reassuring, I finally lost the fear. After some years due to gum recession I was advised implants were an option. After some thought I decided to go ahead and it was the best decision I could have made as I have no trouble eating at all.
I travelled over two hours for my appointment this morning, normally takes an hour, got stuck in heavy traffic. My family and friends ask me why haven't I changed dentist since moving to North Wales. My answer is simple......."I trust them"
