DENTAL BRIDGES IN AURORA, ONTARIO

Serving Patients Across the Greater Toronto Area

Restore your smile and confidence with custom dental bridges from Smile Story Dental Centre. A dental bridge is a fixed restorative solution designed to replace one or more missing teeth, bridging the gap and restoring both the functionality and aesthetics of your smile. At Smile Story Dental Centre, we specialize in creating high-quality, durable dental bridges that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with ease.

What Are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth (pontics) held in place by abutments, which are dental crowns secured on the natural teeth or implants on either side of the gap. Bridges can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain, ceramics, or composite resin, chosen to match the colour and strength of your natural teeth.

Ideal Candidates for Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are an ideal solution for individuals who:

• Have one or more missing teeth

• Are looking for a fixed alternative to dentures

• Have healthy teeth or implants adjacent to the gap for support

• Wish to restore their smile and prevent remaining teeth from shifting

Benefits of Dental Bridges

Choosing a dental bridge at Smile Story Dental Centre offers numerous benefits:

• Aesthetic Appeal: Bridges are crafted to look like your natural teeth, enhancing your smile and facial aesthetics.

• Improved Functionality: Restore your ability to chew and speak properly.

• Prevention of Teeth Shifting: Fills the gap left by missing teeth, preventing the remaining teeth from shifting out of position.

• Durability: With proper care, dental bridges can last many years.

• Non-invasive Procedure for Adjacent Teeth: Requires minimal preparation of the adjacent teeth, preserving as much of your natural tooth structure as possible.

The Dental Bridges Process

Our process for fitting and placing dental bridges is thorough and patient-focused, ensuring the best possible outcome:

• Consultation and Examination: We start with a detailed examination of your oral health to determine if a bridge is the best solution for your needs.

• Preparation of Abutment Teeth: The teeth adjacent to the gap are prepared by reshaping them to properly fit the crowns that will support the bridge.

• Impressions: Impressions of your teeth are taken to create a model, which our dental lab uses to craft your bridge, ensuring a perfect fit and match to your natural teeth.

• Temporary Bridge: A temporary bridge may be placed to protect the exposed teeth and gums while the permanent bridge is being made.

• Fitting of the Permanent Bridge: Once your custom bridge is ready, the temporary bridge is removed, and the new bridge is adjusted as necessary to ensure a comfortable fit. It is then permanently cemented into place.
