Dental Bridge

Are you missing one or more teeth?

Missing teeth can affect your quality of life by impacting your ability to chew and speak properly. They can also damage your confidence and self-esteem by making you feel shy and self-conscious.

The good news is that there is a solution available in Perth to help fix your missing teeth. Dental bridges are an excellent option that can restore your smile, improve your ability to chew and help give you back your confidence. They’re also a strong, stable and convenient alternative to dentures.

What Are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge is a prosthetic device used to fill a gap created by one or more missing teeth.

They consist of gold or porcelain crows that are mounted onto existing teeth or implants and cemented into shape. This bridges the gap and creates a full and natural-looking smile while restoring tooth function and speech.

Types Of Dental Bridge Treatment

Traditional Bridges

These are the most commonly used type of bridge in modern dentistry and are made of porcelain fused to metal or ceramic. With traditional bridges, a crown is created for the tooth or implant on either side of the gap with a pontic (imitation tooth) in between.

The Dental Bridge Treatment Procedure In Perth

  1. Your dentist starts by preparing the teeth adjacent to the gad for treatment by reshaping them. This allows room for the bridge to be placed over them.
  2. Impressions of your teeth are made and sent to our Perth dental lab. These will serve as a model for your dental bridge and help to ensure a proper fit and great colour match.
  3. Your dentist will fit you with a temporary bridge to wear until yours is ready.
  4. Once your new bridge arrives, you will be contacted to return for another appointment. During this session, your new bridge will be fitted, checked and adjusted to ensure a perfect fit.
  5. You may require several follow-up appointments to check and adjust the fit and bite of your new bridge. If yours is a fixed bridge, it may be put in place temporarily to ensure it fits properly and then cemented after a short trial period.
