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.

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!

Rachel Knott

I got recommended by a family member to come here and it was honestly the best decision I’ve made! The whole team are just amazing. Jay is absolutely wonderful! Such a caring, attentive and thorough dentist who makes me feel so heard and looked after whilst I’m with him. Thank you guys so much! Highly recommend this practice if you’re looking for first class treatment 😊

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.

Gosia Ossowska

Would recommend 110%. I found the clinic based on the proximity to my house and Google reviews. Extremely good experience (especially considering you’re going to the dentist office!). I was booked for an emergency visit with Dr Jesal Savania, whom I would highly recommend. I had a wisdom tooth removal, which I didn’t expect to happen on the day of the visit. I had a similar procedure done 10 years ago, which was very painful and traumatic. Dr Savania is a compassionate, professional dentist who calmed me down and he did the procedure in record time, with absolutely no pain. I came back to Dr Savania a few weeks after for a general check up – he is probably the best dentist I have been too and will definitely go back.

After having a previous bad experience with a dentist,I walked into Ascent a complete nervous wreck .From the moment I sat in reception I was calmly reassured . Had a consultation with a member of the team then walked jelly legged into see Jas.

I was reassured and talked through my options and what outcome I would wish for as well as a long term plan to improve my oral health and prolong the time of keeping my teeth before exploring other options.

I felt that at ease and comfortable that I agreed to an extraction of a wisdom tooth at this very first appointment rather than prolong to my next appointment.
Left with a huge grin on my face knowing I made the best choice coming to this dentist and looking forward to my next appointment.

I had a crown prep done today at Ascent and I can’t say enough good things. Didn’t even feel the injection to numb my mouth and the whole team made me feel at ease and calmed any nerves I had. Was a very easy process, and I was able to pay for the crown with their payment plan which made the whole thing a lot easier. Very happy with my choice to join this dentist a few months back. Definitely recommend.
