Dental Bridges

What Are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges are a way to bridge a gap in your mouth for when you have lost a tooth. Bridging gaps are not only for an aesthetic reason, but it is also very important for your overall oral health.

Filling gaps in your mouth can be achieved in a number of ways, dentures, dental implants, crowns, dental bridges etc. Each method can be more ideal in certain situations, of which, we would be happy to see you for a free consultation where we will discuss what treatments will be the most suitable for you.

The dental bridge is named after the function it will provide, it will act as replica of the natural bridge in your mouth, and will be supported at either side of the missing tooth. The bridge will be used to cover the missing tooth whilst being supported at either sides. In the middle of the supports will be a false tooth (known as a pontic).

Amazing! I have a dental bridge done in a different country, and I recently had an appointment with Ascent regarding some big concerns. The staff there are just brilliant and definitely know what they’re doing. Profesionalism and knowledge is what defines the staff at Tamworth!

Why Have a Dental Bridge?

When thinking about having a dental bridge it is important to know what advantages this option has:

Your smile will look the same even after losing the front teeth

You will be able to speak and chew as normal

By filling the gaps, it will stop the surrounding teeth moving into them crookedly

Your bite will be balanced

What Are The Types of Dental Bridges

The types of dental bridges that are available are:

Traditional Dental Bridges

The traditional bridges include a pontic tooth in the middle with abutment teeth on either side – with the usual materials use to make the crowns and tooth being porcelain.

Maryland Dental Bridges

Either side of the bridge have wings that are made out of a metal material. These wings hold the bridge in position on the adjacent teeth, without the teeth either side needing to be crowned.

Cantilever Bridges

If you only have one tooth to support the bridge, it will be secured slightly different and known as a cantilever bridge.

I was an extremely nervous patient but on both my visits I was put at ease and my treatment was pain free and better than I had ever thought possible. I will continue my future treatment with confidence. I cannot thank Ascent and Laura my dentist enough.

My daughter needed braces so after reading reviews about Ascent Dental Care I decided to book a first appointment.

It was 19 months ago.

My daughter had her braces removed last month and the result is superb! It exceeded her expectation.

The care is amazing.

All staff at reception make you feel really welcome and genuinely care about the clients.

Thank you

If like me you have had bad experiences in the past then this is the place to come to.I have been coming here now for two years to finally get the smile i am proud of.I had root canals carried out by Dr Jessal his skill and knowledge is amazing he is clearly at the very top of his profession,i never suffered any pain during or after and returned back to work that same day i can not thank him enough.

A short time after it was time for my crown work to begin and this was carried out by Dr Gursh who whitened my teeth and sorted out my new crowns which look so natural against my other teeth and a perfect fit first time,another top professional who cares and is passionate about getting that perfect smile, you cannot tell they are crowns amazing.

Now after my treatment i return to the hygienist Anita who keeps my teeth looking amazing.
I cannot thank all the staff that work here enough they make a perfect team and they really do care.

Karen Sally

I am a nervous patient and recently have had a fair amount of much needed dental work carried out at Ascent dental care in Tamworth. Everyone at the practice from the women on reception to the 3 practitioners I have had treatment from have been amazing. They have all made me feel respected, reassured and safe, the care and quality of treatment from the practitioners has been excellent. They have explained everything very clearly and listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. Also, I can honestly say that the treatment has been painless. I will never look forward to visiting the dentist but I am much more reassured that I will be taken care of and my dental care is in the safest and most professional hands!

Would recommend 100%. Such friendly and kind staff who made the experience so much better. Big thank you to Charlotte who I had most of my appointments with she was so kind and made me feel so comfortable and the fact that she tried so hard and get an appointment to get my braces off before prom into a busy schedule I will forever be grateful as I had a smile I was confident with at prom. I am happy with the results so thank you everyone at ascent :)

Couldn’t fault this dentist. Chipped my tooth and they got me in same day to check if it could be fixed and even managed to fix it there and then, for a fraction of the price I was expecting. Dentist James was brilliant along with all the staff I encountered!

A Jackson

I recently had an urgent dental issue and turned to Ascent Dental Practice for the first time. I was impressed by their swift response in accommodating me. From the welcoming reception team to the skilled dentists, I was truly impressed by the outstanding service. After completing my pre-paid treatment with my current NHS dentist, I am seriously considering switching to Ascent without hesitation. A definite 10/10 in my book!

Dale Clarke

The best experience at my hygiene appointment today with justine and dev- would highly recommend!

Gemma Powell

A great dental practise. My retainers broke and within 30 minutes I had my retainer replaced. Very much appreciated due to going abroad next day.

I can’t recommend this dentist enough! I was petrified of any dentist and would walk and cry and run out! Since finding Ascent dental care, I have never been more comfortable! Since starting jay has been nothing but reassuring! I have now started my Invisalign journey! Having various different treatments and seeing the hygienist I feel so much more relaxed! The receptionist Kathryn always greets everyone with a smile and so does the other girls on the front desk! I honestly can’t thank this dentist enough!

Lucy Carolyn

Best dentist in Tamworth, beautiful inside and staff are so friendly and attentive. So glad I decided to get my Invisalign here

If you are looking for any cosmetic or orthodontist treatment come here!

Donna Reid

I initially started with having the bottom teeth straightened. I was so pleased with the work and professional experience I rebooked and have had all my veneers replaced. I’m extremely happy with the way they look and would highly recommend this practice to anyone requiring dental treatment or cosmetic work.
