Dental bridges

Get dental bridges from Tyneside Dental and we will provide a supportive, friendly, high-quality dental service that puts you at ease and helps you look and feel youthful again.
What are dental bridges?
Usually, dental bridges are made of an artificial tooth to replace your missing one, and a crown or adhesive wing on one side. These can be made from porcelain, gold, metal alloys or a combination of materials, chosen by you.
Available in a range of designs and materials and handcrafted by our experienced dental technicians, they are an excellent choice if you’re missing less than three teeth. Speak to us to learn more about dental bridges and see if they are a good option for you.
Why have a dental bridge?
If you are missing one or more teeth and want a natural-looking smile, you might be considering dental bridges. These are just some of the reasons why dental bridges could be a good option for you:
You’ll have a more beautiful smile.
A dental bridge will hide your missing tooth, brighten your smile, and help you maintain a more youthful appearance.
You’ll maintain the shape of your face.
With a dental bridge, you’ll help prevent bone loss from your jaw caused by missing teeth and maintain your natural face shape.
You’ll be able to eat your favourite foods.
Missing teeth can make it harder to eat your favourite foods. Getting a dental bridge from Tyneside Dental will help you eat everything you love in a normal way.
You’ll speak more clearly.
If you’re missing teeth, your speech can be affected, and you can develop a lisp or other speech impediment. Dental bridges help fix this problem and ensure you’re understood.
Your teeth are less likely to shift.
A dental bridge can prevent your existing teeth from moving into the space of your missing tooth and help you maintain an attractive smile and eat normally.
Benefits of having a dental bridge
- You’ll feel more confident.
- You won’t have to deal with dentures.
- You’ll look younger and feel more attractive.
Your dental bridge journey
We will carry out an in-depth consultation, examine your mouth, explain more about what is involved and the costs and answer any questions you have.
Once you’ve made the decision to go ahead, we will outline a treatment plan for you, prepare the teeth which will support the bridge, and create an impression (models) of your mouth. This shows us how your teeth bite together so we can ensure your dental bridge is comfortable and allows you to enjoy eating your favourite foods.
You may also be fitted with a temporary restoration if necessary then you can return home.
Meanwhile, our experienced lab technicians will handcraft your perfect dental bridges and then invite you for a second appointment when they are ready.
At this second appointment, your dentist will thoroughly clean your mouth and remove the temporary bridge before fitting your new permanent dental bridge and making any adjustments.
Once this is done and you’re 100% happy with your new smile, we will provide you with full aftercare instructions.
