If you're missing one or more teeth, you may notice a difference in your natural function such as chewing and speaking. In addition you may find that over time the shape of your face and profile may change, along with your natural bite.

A bridge will replace missing teeth by literally ‘bridging’ the gap. It is constructed from very strong porcelains and is suspended from your natural teeth on either side of the gap by using dental cements.

Bridges offer a permanent long lasting solution, which helps restore function, improve health and prevent many ongoing problems that an incorrect bite can cause.

A dental implant is a revolutionary technique that allows the full replacement of a missing tooth. The biggest advantage with this technique is that the gum tissues, bone support and the teeth either side of the missing space are preserved.

An implant is placed during a minor surgical procedure. Prior to its placement you will undergo a series of diagnostic tests to ensure the placement is a success.

Once your implant is placed and healing is confirmed, a porcelain crown is placed on top to imitate the tooth shape. You are then able to function as normal. You can bite into an apple, chew hard sticky foods and enjoy the benefits of strong teeth.
