Restore Your Smile with
Dental Bridges, Brampton

A dental bridge can typically replace one to four adjacent missing teeth. The more teeth that need to be replaced, the less stable a traditional bridge might be, in which case doctors might recommend an implant-supported bridge for better support and longevity.

Yes, modern dental bridges with metal wings or a porcelain framework are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. The artificial tooth (pontic) and crowns are made from high-quality materials such as porcelain fused to metal or all-ceramic, which can be matched to the color of your surrounding teeth for a natural appearance.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the treatment. Some patients may experience mild discomfort or sensitivity after the preparation of the abutment teeth, but this typically subsides within a few days and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

With proper care and regular visits to your dentist, dental bridges can last 5-15 years or longer. Implant-supported bridges tend to have the longest lifespan because they don’t require alteration of healthy adjacent teeth and better preserve the bone in the jaw.

Most dental insurance plans provide some coverage for dental bridges, as they are considered a necessary restorative procedure rather than purely cosmetic. Coverage typically ranges from 50% to 80% of the cost, depending on your specific plan. Our office staff can help verify your benefits and determine your out-of-pocket expenses.
