Dental Bridges

An Affordable Alternative for Multiple Missing Teeth

For some patients who have multiple missing teeth, a bridge may be an appropriate solution to restore full chewing ability. A bridge is anchored on both sides with crowns made of the same material and spans the gap for a return to function and comfort. Our bridges and crowns are created in colours design to blend with your existing teeth and reconstruct the fullness of your smile.
