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.

Special thanks to Shivam Divani at LoveTeeth Cheam, his customer service is incredible & his work speaks for itself. He is so transparent and provides you a non biased opinion on cosmetic treatments, I will be recommending him to all of my friends for Invisalign, Bonding and Whitening treatments.
Brilliant experience every time! I travel over an hour and a half to come here. I’ve had the full smile make over – Invisalign, whitening and composite bonding and I love my teeth and get so many compliments where as before I used to hate my smile. Come here regularly now for check ups and hygienist appointments. Will continue to travel as a great experience every time. Spotless clinics, helpful friendly staff and feel it’s good value for money. Would recommend to others!
I took my anxious son, who had been unsuccessful at treatment with his previous dentist. The team and Dr Woo Young were absolutely fantastic, they were so calm and patient that my son had all his treatment and is happy to go back to see them! Thank you so much, I am very appreciative!
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!
The dentist at Love Teeth was very kind and warming and my daughter did not feel nervous at all. I am so grateful they managed to do the extraction with ease. The waiting room for children is also brilliant, with seasonal things to do (colouring, books, ipad, projector with a film on). We would most definitely come back and will now be looking at a membership for my daughter.
So friendly and welcoming from the moment you walk in the door. The staff remember you and make you feel at ease. Rohan and Debbie just did a filling for me and the whole thing was a breeze, very kind considerate treatment and lovely people. Thank you!
Had a filling done today by the lovely Rohan and Debi. Was a quick and easy process. They talked me through everything letting me know what was going on, and kept making sure I was okay throughout. Couldn’t ask for a better service, both of them were amazing. Thank you x
Gorgeous and friendly staff, really beautiful clinic and perfect treatments. I had my front fillings changed and they look really good. They match my teeth and aren’t visible. I know this is tricky to do but my dentist here is very good and professional so done the best job I have had. Everyone is happy to share information on treatments and will answer any questions.
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.

Frequently asked questions about dental bridges in Surrey
What are dental bridges?
Dental bridges are fixed restorations that literally “bridge” a gap left by missing teeth. They do this by anchoring an artificial tooth (the pontic) to adjacent natural teeth (abutments) or implants.
How does a bridge restore function?
Bridges help restore chewing, speaking, and overall dental function. They also prevent neighbouring teeth from drifting out of alignment and protect your bite.
Will my bridge look natural?
Absolutely, it will be custom-crafted using materials like porcelain or ceramic to match the shade, shape, and texture of your natural teeth for a seamless appearance.
How long do dental bridges last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check‑ups, bridges can last anywhere from 5 to 10+ years, and many patients enjoy an even longer lifespan.
