Restore your smile with dental bridges in Kelowna at Honce Dental

Restore your smile with dental bridges in Kelowna.

Missing teeth can significantly impact your smile, confidence and oral health. Dental bridges offer a reliable solution, replacing missing teeth and providing both aesthetic and functional restoration.

Understanding dental bridges
A dental bridge is a restoration that can restore the gap created by missing teeth. A prosthetic device consisting of artificial teeth, it anchors to healthy natural teeth or dental implants. This fixed bridge not only fills the gap but also prevents shifting and misalignment in surrounding teeth.

Benefits of dental bridges include:

Aesthetic improvements. Advanced tools deliver natural-looking bridges that seamlessly blend with your smile.
Functional dental restoration. Enjoy restored ability to chew and speak, enhancing your quality of life.
An end to shifting and misalignment. Dental bridges prevent shifting and misalignment in adjacent teeth, adding stability and maintaining proper oral function.
Cost-effective procedure. Compared to other options, bridges offer a cost-effective solution for quick restoration.

The process: from consultation to placement

Consultation and examination. Your initial consultation includes an evaluation of your oral health and a discussion to understand your goals and concerns. We prioritize patient-centric care, ensuring you feel comfortable and informed throughout the process.
Tooth preparation and impression taking. Using state-of-the-art technology like the CEREC Prime Scan, the teeth on either side of the gap are meticulously prepared to support the bridge. Digital scans of your teeth are then taken to create a customized bridge that seamlessly integrates with your existing dentition.
Fabrication. Depending on your unique case, you may receive a temporary bridge to wear while your permanent bridge is being fabricated. We strive to minimize inconvenience, often providing same-day bridges to ensure a quick restoration process.
Dental bridge fitting, adjustments and placement. Once your permanent bridge is ready, we ensure a perfect fit through meticulous fitting and adjustments. Our goal is for you to achieve optimal comfort and functionality.

Just like with any dental procedure, we prioritize your ongoing oral health. Our follow-up process ensures that your dental bridge continues to function effectively. This provides long-term benefits for your smile and overall wellbeing.
