Bridges
When the tooth fairy pays an unwelcome visit, you may be left wondering if anything can be done to get your tooth back and fill the gap they leave behind.
With a dental bridge, you can do just that, using the teeth on either side as a secure anchor to keep the replacement in place permanently.
Bridges restore your smile by getting rid of gaps. And they also play an essential role in maintaining general oral health by restoring the bite function and preventing neighbouring teeth from crowding into the space left behind.
Bridges
- Replaces missing teeth
- Restores aesthetics and function

I recently have had composite bonding done in the Sutton branch because I didn’t like the colour, length or shape of my teeth. I can’t thank Caroline enough for spending so much time and effort in making sure that they are perfect, I couldn’t be happier with the results! All the staff are so helpful and so lovely and make you feel so comfortable, I would highly recommend Love Teeth!
Having not been to dentist in years I was very nervous but my dentist Laraeb Nawaz made me feel totally at ease and talked me through everything that I needed done, she is lovely and a credit to Love Teeth. All the staff have been so nice, welcoming and attentive. Thank you for all looking after me.
Thanks Dr Emmanuel Clozza for my new implant – really pleased with the result. Dr Clozza Love Teeth Stonecot Hill is a true professional and the best dentist. Everybody at the Stonecot Hill Surgery makes you feel at ease – Ann Gardner.
The girls are kind and lovely and Emanuele so experienced with implants that the entire procedure is quick and relatively painless. Highly recommend.
I am so pleased with my new implant! The centre is spotless and modern. All of the staff by are welcoming and friendly. I was very nervous but the lovely dental nurse reassured me I was in good hands and was there for every appointment. Dr Emmanuel Clozza made me feel at ease with his expertise straight away. He has done an amazing job!
Amazing dental practise with very caring doctors. For someone who is scared of dentist I can say it’s a place where people working there gives you confidence. Dr Sheena Patel is an angel. So much recommended!
My appointment was regarding the invisalign package. Scheduling appointment was easy, completed forms online to save time on arrival. Dr Megna Shah & her team were welcoming and very informative. If you are an anxious patient like myself, rest assured you will be very well looked after.
I am extremely nervous about the dentist and have been for 2 fillings today. When I came in I was shaking and on the edge of tear but Rohan was brilliant, really reassuring and made me feel really comfortable. My nerves calmed throughout and had a great experience. Thanks Rohan
Dental Bridges – Your Options
There are several types of dental bridges to choose from. Don’t worry if this all sounds a little technical—our experienced team can talk you through the options and let you know which type will work best for you.
Traditional Bridge
We use these when there are healthy teeth on either side of the gap to rely on for support. We may fit crowns to strengthen them before installing your new prosthetic tooth. Traditional bridges are typically made from ceramics or porcelain, which can fuse to metal.
Cantilever Bridge
If there is a healthy tooth only on one side of the gap, all is not lost. A cantilever bridge is similar to a traditional bridge. However, it relies on just one adjacent tooth for support.
Maryland Bonded Bridges
These are sometimes referred to as resin-bonded bridges and can be made from a combination of porcelain, metal, plastic and resin. They are fixed to the adjacent teeth using porcelain or metal wings.
Dental Bridges – The Process
In true Love Teeth style, we’ll start with a consultation to find out whether a bridge is right for you. We’ll let you know a bit more about the different types of bridges on offer, and we may take an X-ray of your jaw to make sure it’s the best course of action.
At your first appointment, we’ll prepare the teeth on either side of the gap, making minor adjustments to their shape to ensure they can easily support the prosthetic tooth. We’ll then fit a temporary bridge while the permanent one is precision-engineered in the laboratory.
At a follow-up appointment, we’ll replace the temporary bridge with its permanent replacement. This will match the shade and shape of your existing teeth for a completely seamless look.
We’ll see you again in a few weeks to make sure you’re 100% happy with your new bridge, and we can also make any adjustments if necessary.

Before & After Bridges
Problem
Loose dentures surrounded by even looser teeth prevented this patient from smiling and eating.
Treatment
We used upper and lower implants to support fixed acrylic bridgework. Can you spot the difference?
Problem
A dental phobia and 20 years of missed dentist appointments led to decay and missing teeth.
Treatment
A series of five implants and a fixed bridge soon had our patient smiling and enjoying food again.
