  • Prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position

What are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges literally “bridge the gap” between one or more missing teeth. A dental bridge consists of:

  • two crowns, one for each of the teeth on either side of the gap,
  • and a false tooth/teeth in-between your two natural teeth or dental implants.

These false teeth are made from ceramic and are supported by your natural teeth (or implants).
