Dental Bridges in Downtown Edmonton

Dental Bridges Near You

Do you have a missing tooth that makes it difficult for you to eat or smile? Do you feel uncomfortable in public because of the space between your teeth? Toothworks Dentistry offers dental bridges in downtown Edmonton to help you bridge those missing teeth and get back your full, flawless smile.

A dental bridge is a durable and safe method to cover the area where a tooth has been removed. It is linked with the teeth on both sides, and a new tooth is firmly held there. If you are looking for dental bridges near you, our team is ready to help you make the whole treatment easier and more relaxing.

What Is a Dental Bridge and How Does It Work

A dental bridge is a pontic (replacement tooth) that fills the gap from a missing tooth. It is a dental appliance that is placed next to adjacent teeth, and in some cases, adjacent teeth are treated with crowns so the bridge is more stable. Depending on the materials used, bridges can be made of porcelain, metal, or a combination of the two with a customized tooth colour.

Dental bridges allow for:

Normal eating and speaking
Preventing your remaining teeth from shifting
Improving the appearance of your smile
Providing support to your mouth and jaw

After examining your teeth, a dentist in Downtown Edmonton will assist you in determining whether a bridge is the best course of action.

When Is a Dental Bridge a Good Choice?

You might need a dental bridge if you:

One or more teeth lost as a result of decay or trauma
Have healthy teeth on either side of the gap
Want a fixed solution that doesn’t come out
Prefer something more stable than a removable denture

Dr. Sam Withanachchi will check your mouth and X-ray your teeth and gums to make sure they are ready for a bridge at Toothworks Dentistry. We’ll go over your options with you and assist you in selecting the best option for your smile.

Step-by-Step: Getting dental Dental Bridge

Below describes the steps involved in getting dental bridges in downtown Edmonton.

Visit 1: Evaluation and Preparation
A dentist near you will check your teeth, clean the area, and prepare the nearby teeth for crowns. After that, we use impressions to create your unique bridge design.
Visit 2: Temporary Bridge
While your permanent bridge is being constructed, you will be given a temporary one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does getting a dental bridge hurt?

Not at all. You won’t experience any pain because we numb the affected area during the treatment. Most people report that they are fine after the treatment.

How long does a dental bridge last?

A bridge can last 10-15 years and even more with proper care. It lasts longer when you see your dentist on a regular basis.

Can I eat normally with a bridge?

Certainly, once your bridge is installed, you may eat and chew just like before. But you are advised not to use the bridge side of your mouth to bite or break hard objects.

Will my bridge look like a real tooth?

Yes. We match the colour and the shape so that they fit your natural teeth perfectly and give a natural appearance.
