Dental Bridges in Stapleford
A fixed, non-surgical way to replace one or more missing teeth, with the cost confirmed in writing before treatment.
Private Dental Bridges at Concept Dental
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that fills the gap left by one or more missing teeth. An artificial tooth, called a pontic, is held in place by crowns on the teeth either side of the gap, and the bridge is not removed for cleaning. At Concept Dental, bridges are £650 per unit.
A bridge does not need implant surgery, but the teeth either side of the gap must be prepared to support it. We compare it with a dental implant at your consultation and give you written costs for each.

When Is a Bridge Appropriate?
A bridge may suit you if you have one or more missing teeth with healthy teeth on either side of the gap, enough gum health in the area, and you prefer to avoid surgery or are not suitable for implants.
If the neighbouring teeth are healthy and untreated, we will always discuss whether a dental implant is a better option before recommending bridge preparation.
Your Bridge Appointments
We assess the gap, the supporting teeth and your bite, and give you written costs for bridge and implant options.
The supporting teeth are prepared under local anaesthetic, impressions are taken and temporary restorations protect the teeth.
Your bridge is made to measure by a dental laboratory.
We check the fit, bite and appearance before the bridge is cemented, and show you how to clean beneath it. Regular hygiene appointments and dental examinations help protect the bridge and supporting teeth.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a dental bridge cost?
Bridges are £650 per unit. You receive a written plan with the cost before treatment begins.
Is a bridge better than an implant?
It depends on your situation. A dental implant does not require preparation of the adjacent teeth, while a bridge avoids surgery. We explain both options and give written costs at your consultation.
Does bridge treatment hurt?
Preparation is carried out under local anaesthetic, and sedation is available at the practice for patients who need extra support.
Can a bridge replace more than one tooth?
Yes. Depending on the supporting teeth and your situation, a bridge can span more than one missing tooth. We assess this at your consultation.
How do I clean a bridge?
The area beneath the artificial tooth needs cleaning daily with an interdental brush or floss threader. We show you the right technique when the bridge is fitted.
