What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are fixed dental restorations used to replace one or more missing teeth. They are anchored to the natural teeth or dental implants on either side of the gap and “bridge” the space left by missing teeth.
At Perkadent, we offer:
Traditional Bridges – Supported by natural teeth
Implant-Supported Bridges – Anchored to dental implants for added stability
Cantilever Bridges – Used when support is available on one side only
Each bridge is custom-crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
