About Zirconium Bridge
A bridge fills the gap left by one or more missing teeth by joining a false tooth to crowns on the teeth either side. Zirconium is a strong, tooth-coloured material that looks natural and is kind to the gums.
The neighbouring teeth are shaped to carry the bridge, so your dentist will assess them carefully before recommending it.
Benefits
- Fills the gap in your smile
- Restores chewing and speech
- Strong, natural-looking material
- A fixed option, not removable
Who it suits
- One or a few missing teeth with healthy neighbours
- People who want a fixed alternative to a denture
- Those who prefer not to have an implant
Safety and what to tell us
- The teeth on either side are shaped, so they must be healthy enough to support it
- Good gum health is needed before treatment
- An implant may be an alternative, which we discuss with you
What to expect
- Plan. We examine the gap and neighbouring teeth and discuss options.
- Prepare. The supporting teeth are shaped, an impression is taken and a temporary bridge is fitted.
- Fit. The final bridge is checked, adjusted and cemented.
Sessions
Usually two or three visits over a couple of weeks.
Downtime
None. Teeth may be sensitive briefly.
Aftercare
- Clean under the bridge with floss threaders or interdental brushes
- Avoid very hard foods on the temporary bridge
- Keep regular check-ups
