Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a simple way to replace a missing tooth and make eating, speaking and smiling feel comfortable again. We offer traditional, Maryland, and cantilever dental bridges as options for replacing missing teeth.
What are Dental Bridges?
A bridge attaches a false tooth to the natural teeth on either side, either using crowns or discreet metal wings. This helps stop teeth shifting out of place and makes eating and speaking feel normal again.
Dental bridges are a fixed, reliable solution for replacing missing teeth.
If you’re exploring options for missing teeth, you might also consider dentures for an affordable, removable alternative.

Dental Bridges FAQ's
How many teeth can a dental bridge replace?
A bridge can replace one missing tooth or several in a row – the number depends on your needs and the health of the teeth on either side.
How long does it take to fit a dental bridge?
Most bridges are fitted over two appointments – one to prepare and take impressions, and another to place the finished bridge.
Can you get a dental bridge on the NHS?
Yes. Dental bridges are available under Band 3 NHS treatment. Private bridges are available to offer more choice in materials and design for the most natural match.
