Fill the Gaps, Restore Your Smile
Apart from affecting your appearance, missing teeth can have a significant impact on your ability to chew, maintain proper alignment and even speak. At Brush Dental, we offer dental bridges in Sherwood Park as a reliable, long-lasting solution to restore your smile and prevent further dental issues. Be it for one or more missing teeth, a dental bridge can help you feel confident and comfortable again.
Understanding Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a custom-made restoration that fills the space left by one or more missing teeth. It’s anchored in place by the surrounding natural teeth or dental implants, creating a seamless, functional replacement that looks and feels natural. Dental bridges help restore your bite, improve your speech, and prevent neighbouring teeth from shifting out of place.
Types of Dental Bridges
Traditional Bridges
The most common type, ideal when there are healthy teeth on both sides of the gap. These teeth are used as anchors to support the bridge.
Cantilever Bridges
Used when there’s only a single healthy tooth next to the gap. It is less common, but it can be an effective solution in certain cases.
Implant-Supported Bridges
A great choice for larger gaps or when adjacent teeth aren’t strong enough to support a traditional bridge. These are anchored by dental implants for added stability and longevity.
What to Expect
Dental bridges are often recommended when one or more teeth are missing and the surrounding teeth are healthy enough to support the restoration. With proper care, a dental bridge can last decades. We’ll guide you through the process and provide personalized tips for cleaning and maintaining your bridge at home to ensure long-term success.
