Bridges

A dental bridge is a permanent fixture comprising one or more false teeth and is used to fill the gap after the natural tooth has been lost through injury or extraction.

Beautifully crafted in porcelain just for you, our bridges are extremely durable, correct bite issues, improve speech and are a good way to get your smile back on track.

Bridge treatment at Sturminster Dental Care takes two appointments. At the first appointment, we minimally shape the teeth on either side of the space, take a special mould of the teeth and place a customised temporary bridge.

About 14 days later at your second appointment, we will remove the temporary bridge before carefully fitting your new bridge. Your dentist will check for your comfort and make any small adjustments to ensure a perfect fit.

Reasons to consider dental bridges:

  • Restore the appearance of your smile
  • Filling a gap will prevent the remaining teeth from shifting out of position and coming loose
  • Promotes health gums and prevents bone loss
  • Preserves your ability to chew and speak normally
  • Ensures an even bite which will help preserve the remaining teeth

If you have missing teeth, talk with your Sturminster Dental Care dentist to learn more about bridges and other restorative options. We’ll help find the best solution for your individual needs.

The thing that always makes the experience great at Stuminster Dental is Brian ThomasonBrian has been my dentist for a long time. His work is excellent and the team he has created at Sturminster Dental are fantastic.I will be watching with interest the new developments that will surely come with new management. If the changes do not meet up to Brians high standards I will be looking for a new dental practice.

I have been with Sturminster Dental Care for almost a year and have received excellent care. Each visit has been a very positive experience thanks to the lovely, helpful reception staff, the comfortable waiting area, and the wonderful dental surgeon and dental hygienist.

It was the first time I met the new dentist and he took the time to introduce himself and explain the options available to me. He was very friendly and put me at ease .

Having worried after losing a piece of filling that I might lose my tooth I was really happy that this was not the case. Dr Amuesi was very gentle, he refilled my tooth without any problems and me not having to return.

We have recently moved from Oxford and needed a good dentist as my wife needed some work. This dental practice is the best I have ever experienced. From the dental nurses, to the meet and greet. Amazing from the first step in the building. Well done to all..
