Dental Bridge in Heckmondwike
Replace Missing Teeth with a Natural Look and Feel
Missing a tooth can affect how you eat, speak and smile.
A dental bridge is a straightforward way to fill the gap and bring back your confidence.
At Kirklees Dental Centre, we offer strong, natural-looking dental bridges that restore your bite and appearance. We treat patients across Heckmondwike, Dewsbury, Batley, Liversedge and Cleckheaton with long-lasting results that feel comfortable and familiar.
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A bridge is a fixed replacement for one or more missing teeth. It works by attaching a false tooth to the teeth next to the gap. In some cases, we may use dental implants to support the bridge if needed.
Here is how it works:
- We assess your mouth to check if a bridge is right for you
- We prepare the nearby teeth to support the bridge
- A custom-made bridge is created to match your smile
- Once ready, we fit it in place securely
A bridge stays in your mouth and does not need to be taken out. It feels like part of your natural teeth.
