Why Choose Bridges
Natural Appearance
Dental bridges are designed to match the colour, shape, and size of your existing teeth. This ensures a seamless integration that enhances your appearance without looking artificial. With advanced materials and techniques, we create lifelike results that restore your natural smile.
Improved Functionality
Missing teeth can affect your ability to chew and speak clearly. Dental bridges fill the gaps, allowing you to eat comfortably and speak with confidence. They also prevent nearby teeth from shifting, maintaining proper bite alignment.
Long-Lasting Solution
With proper care, dental bridges can last over a decade. Our dental team in Leek ensures every bridge is securely placed and easy to maintain. The result is a durable, fixed solution that brings lasting benefits to your oral health.
What is Dental Bridge
A dental bridge is a fixed prosthetic device used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of an artificial tooth (or teeth) held in place by crowns attached to the adjacent natural teeth or implants. Dental bridges are an ideal choice for patients seeking a non-removable, permanent tooth replacement solution.
We offer several types of dental bridges in Leek, including traditional, cantilever, Maryland, and implant-supported options. The right choice depends on the number and position of missing teeth and your overall dental health. Each bridge is custom-made to ensure a perfect fit and natural appearance.
Our clinic in Staffordshire uses high-quality materials like porcelain fused to metal or zirconia for strength and aesthetics. Every bridge is crafted to offer comfort, functionality, and a beautiful smile that boosts your confidence.

The Treatment Process
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation at our dental clinic in Leek. We assess your oral health, take digital X-rays, and discuss your options. If you’re suitable for a dental bridge, we’ll design a personalised treatment plan to meet your needs.
Tooth Preparation
During the second appointment, we prepare the teeth adjacent to the gap to support the bridge. Impressions are taken and sent to a dental lab where your custom bridge is crafted. A temporary bridge is fitted to protect the area until your permanent one is ready.
Bridge Placement
Once your permanent dental bridge is ready, we carefully fit and adjust it to ensure optimal bite, comfort, and aesthetics. Once you’re happy, the bridge is bonded into place. We’ll give you guidance on how to care for it and schedule a follow-up to ensure everything is healing well.
