Dental Bridges Vancouver BC
Are you looking for a dental bridge in Vancouver to replace missing teeth? At Kerrisdale Dental Centre, our experienced dental team, led by Dr. Abbas Tejani & Dr. Omar Kassam, specializes in providing custom dental bridges that restore your smile’s appearance and function. We provide dental bridge work Vancouver residents can rely on to look and feel natural.
A dental bridge Vancouver patients receive from us is a fixed dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. It works by anchoring an artificial tooth (a pontic) to the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. If you have missing teeth, a dental bridge is one of several teeth replacement options we offer.
Dental Bridges – Kerrisdale Dental Care
Key Benefits – Porcelain Bridges in Vancouver A bridge is an excellent option to:
- Fill space of missing teeth
- Help maintain facial shape
- Prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position and over erupting
- Restore chewing and speaking ability
- Restore your smile and maintaining your bite
- Upgrade from a removable partial denture to a permanent dental appliance
When a tooth is missing, the surrounding teeth will move into the space, creating misaligned teeth, causing changes in the bite, and allowing the over eruption of teeth. The teeth and bone also help support the cheeks and when they’re missing, they cheeks may sink in, making one appear older. Replacing those missing teeth will help keep your facing looking younger and healthy! A bridge is a quick and esthetic way to replace one or more missing teeth. Unlike implants, a bridge is a non-surgical option to restore your smile. It is fixed to the surrounding teeth, “bridging” the gap between them. This is an excellent option for replacing a partial denture! Bridges are left in while eating and sleeping and their maintenance consists of brushing and flossing, just like your natural teeth.

Benefits of a Dental Bridge in Vancouver
A dental bridge from Kerrisdale Dental Centre in Vancouver offers several advantages:
- Restores your smile: Bridges fill the gap left by missing teeth, giving you back a full, confident smile.
- Restores oral function: A dental bridge helps you properly chew, speak, and bite, maintaining good oral function.
- Maintains facial structure: By preventing the adjacent teeth from shifting, a bridge helps maintain your natural face shape.
- Distributes bite force: Dental bridges evenly distribute the forces of your bite, which helps protect your remaining teeth.
- Prevents adjacent teeth from drifting: Bridges prevent your existing teeth from moving into the space left by missing teeth.
Types of Dental Bridges Vancouver
At our Vancouver dental practice, we offer several types of dental bridges to meet the individual needs of our patients:
- Traditional Fixed Bridge: This is the most common type of dental bridge. It involves placing dental crowns on the abutment teeth (the teeth adjacent to the gap) to support the pontic.
- Cantilever Bridge: A cantilever bridge is used when there are adjacent teeth on only one side of the missing tooth.
- Implant-Supported Bridge: For even greater stability, an implant-supported bridge uses dental implants instead of natural teeth to support the bridge.
The Dental Bridge Process at Kerrisdale Dental Centre
The process of getting a dental bridge at our Vancouver clinic typically involves several steps:
- Initial Consultation: During your first visit at our dental clinic on 2354 W 41st Ave, Dr. Tejani & Dr. Kassam will examine your oral health, discuss your smile goals, and determine if a dental bridge is the right solution for you.
- Preparation of Abutment Teeth: The abutment teeth are prepared to receive the dental crowns. This usually involves recontouring these teeth by removing a small portion of the enamel.
- Impressions: Our dental team will take impressions of your teeth. These impressions are used to create a precise model for the dental lab, which will fabricate your custom dental bridge.
- Bridge Placement: Once the bridge is fabricated, you’ll return to our V6M 2A4 dental office. Dr. Abbas Tejani & Dr. Omar Kassam will carefully fit, adjust, and cement the bridge into place.
