Bridges

If you have a few missing teeth, a dental bridge can fill in the odd gap with a false tooth securely positioned between two crowns. Usually made from a combination of metal and porcelain, bridges are a longer lasting solution as they are firmly fixed over the natural teeth that lie either side of a gap. We can also provide adhesive bridges which consist of a false tooth attached to a titanium wing that is then glued to a supporting tooth, and all-ceramic bridges which offer strength and a natural-looking appearance.

How we fit a bridge:

We remove a layer of the supporting teeth so the crowns will fit comfortably and then take impressions so your bridge can be custom-made. When the specially designed bridge has been produced, we check it fits and then fix it in position with dental cement.

Good to know:

It’s vital to maintain excellent oral hygiene to keep your bridge and the surrounding teeth in good condition. This should feature regular brushing and flossing, as well as careful cleaning under the false tooth. You should also attend regular check-ups so we can detect and treat any problems.

NHS Treatment

NHS patients, who pay for their treatment, pay 80% of the treatment costs (including any x-rays), up to a maximum of £384. Full details of NHS dental charges are provided at reception.

If the cost of your treatment is likely to exceed the limit of £384, then your dentist will need to apply to the Health Board for approval to provide your treatment. The waiting time for a decision from the Health Board is around 6-8 weeks, and the decision is taken by the Health Board, not your individual dentist. Even if your treatment costs more than £384, this is the maximum you will have to pay for treatment provided on the NHS.
