Dental Bridges Streatham

If you’re missing one or more teeth, a dental bridge is a reliable and natural-looking solution.
A dental bridge is made up of one or more artificial teeth that are securely anchored in place—either by the natural teeth on either side of the gap or with dental implants. Most bridges are built on a strong metal base for durability, and porcelain is added to match the colour and appearance of your natural teeth—especially important for teeth that show when you smile.

How do I care for a dental bridge?
