Dentists in London SE1 offer the brilliant solution of dental bridges

19 / 06 / 2011

Having a gap in your teeth is something that people find really damages their self-esteem. It affects the look of your smile in a negative way so that you might be ashamed to show off what ought to be one of your best assets: a full set of sparkling, white teeth. Tooth loss is more common than you might think and has a variety of causes from dental decay to gum disease to one off accidents which knock teeth out of the mouth.

Dental bridges are one way to sort this out by getting a replacement tooth secured into the mouth, thus restoring the effect of a smart smile and the functionality of your mouth. Essentially dental bridge work involves securing a false tooth to the adjacent tooth or teeth. It is highly adaptable and discreet.

No two dental bridge procedures are the same because your London SE1 dentist will thoroughly examine your mouth in order to determine how best to secure the false tooth. What will be considered primarily is the strength of the teeth which surround the spot where the tooth has been lost.

In the ideal scenario, your false tooth will be secured to the two, strong, healthy teeth on either side of it using dental resin. In practice this I not always possible if one of the teeth is not strong enough or there is only one adjacent tooth. Dental bridges can still work though if there is only one tooth to attach the false tooth to. If it is a front tooth that has been lost, your dentist will carefully conceal the bond so that it is not visible when you smile.
