More About Bridges

Are you missing one or more teeth? At The Plaza Dental Centre in Toronto, ON, we offer many treatment options that can include dental bridges that restore your smile, improve chewing function, and prevent long-term oral health issues. Dental bridges are a proven solution for replacing missing teeth with results that look natural and last for years.

If you’re missing teeth, a dental bridge can close the gap in your smile. Composed of materials such as gold or porcelain, dental bridges are strong and durable false teeth that easily blend in with your natural teeth.

Whether you’re exploring options or ready to move forward with treatment, our experienced team is here to help every step of the way.

How does a dental bridge work?

What Is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is a fixed dental restoration used to fill the space left by one or more missing teeth. The artificial tooth (called a pontic) is anchored in place by the surrounding teeth (called abutments) or dental implants.

At The Plaza Dental Centre, we custom-design each bridge to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth—restoring your bite, smile, and confidence.

Types of Dental Bridges We Provide in Toronto

Our clinic offers a variety of dental bridge solutions to meet your unique needs:

  1. Traditional Dental Bridge
  • The most common type
  • Supported by crowns placed on healthy teeth on both sides of the gap
  • Ideal for patients with strong adjacent teeth
  1. Cantilever Bridge
  • Anchored to just one adjacent tooth
  • Typically used for front teeth where bite pressure is lower
  1. Maryland (Resin-Bonded) Bridge
  • Conservative option using metal or porcelain wings bonded to the back of adjacent teeth
  • Suitable for replacing missing front teeth
  1. Implant-Supported Bridge
  • Secured with dental implants rather than natural teeth
  • Best for patients missing multiple teeth
  • Offers excellent stability and durability

What Is the Procedure Like?

At The Plaza Dental Centre, we follow a detailed, patient-centered process:

  1. Initial Consultation
    We perform a comprehensive dental exam, including X-rays, to determine the best bridge option for you.
  2. Tooth Preparation
    Adjacent teeth are shaped (if required), and impressions are taken to fabricate your custom bridge.
  3. Temporary Bridge (if needed)
    A temporary solution is placed while your permanent bridge is being made.
  4. Permanent Bridge Placement
    Once ready, the bridge is precisely fitted and permanently bonded in place.

How Long Do Dental Bridges Last?

With good oral hygiene and routine dental visits, most dental bridges last 8–15 years or longer. Implant-supported bridges may last 20+ years with proper care.

Dental Bridge Materials

We use high-quality materials to ensure comfort, durability, and aesthetics:

  • Porcelain and Zirconia for a natural look
  • Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) for strength and aesthetics
  • Metal alloys (e.g., gold) for long-lasting durability in molars

A missing tooth or teeth can cause structural shifts to the mouth and jaw which may result in difficulty eating or speaking normally. With a dental bridge, you can restore your smile, speech, ability to chew and maintain the shape of your face. 

A new dental bridge may take some time to feel like your natural teeth. Following the dental bridge placement, it is highly recommended that you eat soft foods for a few days before transitioning back to regular habits. Our team will go over pre- and post-treatment information during your visit.

We recommend coming in for a consultation so we can discuss your case specifically and put together a few options for you.
