Dental Bridges FAQs
How much does a dental bridge cost in West Byfleet?
Dental bridge costs vary based on the number of units (teeth replaced), materials chosen (porcelain vs zirconia), and complexity. We provide written, itemised quotes at your consultation. Flexible 0% finance options are available to spread the cost.
How long do dental bridges last?
With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a high-quality porcelain dental bridge typically lasts between 10 and 15+ years.
What is the difference between a dental bridge and a dental implant?
A dental bridge replaces missing teeth by anchoring to neighboring natural teeth or crowns. A dental implant is a titanium post placed into the jawbone that acts as a standalone artificial tooth root. We will advise which option best suits your oral health and budget.
Is getting a dental bridge painful?
Not at all. The preparation and fitting procedures are completed under local anaesthetic, ensuring complete comfort. Any mild post-treatment sensitivity subsides within a few days.
How do I care for my dental bridge?
Clean your bridge daily just like natural teeth by brushing twice a day. Special superfloss or interdental brushes are used to clean underneath the pontic (false tooth) to keep surrounding gums healthy.
