Besides having dental implants, there are two main ways to replace missing teeth. The first is with a removable false tooth or teeth – a partial denture. The second is with a fixed bridge.
A bridge is usually used where there are fewer teeth to replace, or when the missing teeth are only on one side of the mouth. Bridges are usually made of a precious metal base.
If the bridge will show, porcelain is then bonded to the base. Sometimes, there are other non-precious metals used in the base to reduce the cost.
Our bridges and crowns are created by Knight Dental Design, Specialists in aesthetic dental technology. Knight Dental Design are the only dental laboratory to have won both of the UK dental industries annual awards for excellence. To learn more about Knight Dental Design, click here.
