Dental Bridges

Dental Bridges

A missing tooth can affect more than your smile — it can make eating and speaking feel different, too. A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that fills the gap by anchoring to the teeth on either side, giving you back the ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. At Redwater Dental Clinic, we create custom bridges that look natural and feel comfortable.

The process is straightforward, and most patients are pleasantly surprised at how simple it is. We'll explain each step clearly before we begin, and sedation and comfort options are always available if you'd like extra support.

Benefits of Dental Bridges

• Replace missing teeth with a natural-looking restoration
• Restore your ability to chew and speak properly
• Prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position
• Maintain the shape of your face
• Fixed in place — no need to remove for cleaning
• Long-lasting with proper care

Getting a Dental Bridge

The bridge process typically involves two visits:

1. Examination and treatment planning
2. Gentle preparation of the supporting teeth
3. Digital impressions for precise fit
4. Temporary bridge while your permanent one is crafted
5. Fitting and bonding of your custom permanent bridge

Dental bridges can last 10-15 years or more with proper oral hygiene. We will discuss whether a bridge, dental implant, or dentures is the best option for your situation.
