Dental Bridges in Thornhill, ON

A smile with gaps can be problematic for your health and wellbeing. When spaces exist between the teeth, there is a greater potential for surrounding teeth to shift, leaving you with a less stable and even bite. We always recommend having the gaps in your smile filled in with restorations. Dental bridges are a common choice for our patients due to their durability, cost, and cosmetic appeal.

A dental bridge is created by fitting a pontic (a false tooth) into the space left by a missing tooth. The bridge is secured in place on either side by abutment teeth. Our dentists can craft several types of bridges depending on the health of your remaining teeth and the position of the missing tooth or teeth. Traditional bridges are the most common type of bridge. For a traditional bridge, the pontic will be secured onto dental crowns fitted over the abutment teeth. This results in a secure, seamless restoration that fully restores your bite and your smile.
