UK Dental Crowns & Bridges Treatments

Dental Bridges Treatment in Tunbridge Wells and Brighton & Hove

Here at The Town House Dental Practice, we are pleased to offer dental crown treatment and bridge dental treatments. Both options can be considered cosmetic dentistry but they are also an important way to maintain dental health.

If you have missing teeth, a dental bridge might be the solution for you. Our dental bridge treatment can be used to permanently replace missing teeth. This procedure works by using an artificial tooth to bridge the gap between your natural teeth. The false tooth is permanently bonded and attached to the natural teeth on either side of your gap.

A dental bridge is an affordable and effective way to replace a missing tooth. The dental bridge fills the gap and also prevents the bite problems associated with shifting teeth. One of our experienced and friendly dentists would be happy to go through your options to see if a dental bridge is suitable for you.

As well as dental bridge treatment, we can also address missing teeth with implants and dentures. Find out more about dentures and implants.

Cosmetic dental crowns (often referred to as teeth caps) are best described as a material that completely covers a damaged or weakened tooth. A dental crown can be made to match the colour of your teeth, providing a very natural look. A dental crown is usually required in cases where a tooth has broken, a portion of the tooth has become chipped or to replace large old fillings.
