Dental bridges are fixed in place to fill gaps left behind by lost or dislodged teeth. Unlike dentures or partials, only our experienced dentists near you can remove or replace them. Bridges can be a long-lasting, aesthetic, and hassle-free option if you care for them properly.

Please call our conveniently located dental office to learn more about our range of standard and implant-supported bridges. There are different dental bridges in York & North York, ON, such as traditional, cantilever, and Maryland dental bridges.

Procedure for a Fixed Dental Bridge

Dental bridges generally require two or more dental visits to Marlee Dental Office.

Step 1

One of our skilled dentists will prepare the teeth on either side of the missing tooth (or teeth) to help them receive the crowns that will anchor the bridge.

Step 2

Next, we will take precise impressions or images of the tooth after digitally scanning the gums and the gap. These accurate moulds serve as models for the permanent dental bridge fabricated by a highly reliable off-site lab. The lab technicians will customize the bridge in terms of size, shape and colour, according to your needs.

Step 3

We will fasten a temporary bridge on the treated supporting teeth to reduce the likelihood of trauma and damage while the permanent one is being prepared.

Step 4

During the second visit, our dentists will first remove the temporary bridge and skilfully place, adjust and cement the permanent bridge into place. You cannot remove it without our assistance.

Our friendly family dentists in York & North York, ON are always ready to address concerns regarding dental bridges or other issues.

Dental Bridge Care and Maintenance

Dental bridges can complete your smile for more than 15 to 20 years with regular hygiene practices and professional supervision.

• Please use floss threaders or water floss to clean under the bridge to prevent decay.
• Brush twice a day, floss once a day and get regular teeth cleanings to keep your teeth free of cavity-causing plaque.
