Dental bridges.

A dental bridge can be a wonderful option for replacing single or even multiple teeth. Dental bridges permanently replace your missing teeth by joining to the natural adjacent teeth to bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth.

What is a dental bridge?

A bridge is made by preparing the anchor teeth for crowns in order to create space for the chosen restorative material to restore the size and shape of the original teeth and to enable the gap to be bridged by a pontic or false tooth. To learn how a bridge is prepared, check out our 3D video on bridge preparation below:

Similar to tooth crowns, these can be constructed from cast metal materials, such as gold or high-grade porcelain, which is the preferred choice for cosmetic treatments. Dental bridges are sealed or bonded into place using a dental cement and fixed permanently in the mouth.

How can cosmetic dentistry help improve the appearance of my smile?

Cosmetic dentistry is a type of dentistry that focuses on improving the appearance of your smile. If your teeth are broken, chipped, stained, worn, discoloured, or misaligned, cosmetic dentistry can give you a better smile. Whether you want teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, or are interested in dental implants, our Nanaimo dentists will work with you to develop a treatment plan that fits your needs.

How often should I go to my dentist for a teeth cleaning?

A dental cleaning aids in the early detection of tooth decay and gum disease and is extremely important to the longevity of your teeth. Your Nanaimo dentist and hygienist can determine how often you should visit the dentist for a teeth cleaning based on your specific needs.

What is sedation dentistry and do you offer it?

Yes! Our Nanaimo Dental Clinic offers two sedation dentistry options to make your appointment more comfortable. Your sedation dentist can administer oral sedatives one hour before your dental appointment, which will make you feel more relaxed and calmer. If you take oral sedatives, you will be required to have a responsible adult accompany you to and from your appointment. We also administer nitrous oxide, known as “laughing gas,” for patients that prefer to go about their day immediately after their appointment with no after-effects.

Can I bring my children to this clinic your Nanaimo Dental Clinic?
