Dental bridges in Ilford

What is a bridge?

A bridge replaces a gap with a fixed restoration. Its design and support depend on the teeth and the proposed treatment plan.

Understand the options

Ask how a bridge would be supported, whether neighbouring teeth need preparation and how it compares with an implant or another suitable option.

Care and planning

Discuss cleaning, maintenance, likely appointments and fees. An assessment is needed before a recommendation or a treatment estimate can be made.

Your questions answered

Is a bridge the same as an implant?

No. They are different approaches to replacing teeth. Ask a dentist to explain the differences relevant to your situation.
