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 Oakmead 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 Oakmead Dental Care dentist to learn more about bridges and other restorative options. We’ll help find the best solution for your individual needs.

Excellent personal care.

Friendly and helpful advice for future care of my teeth

17th August 2025

I've had bad dental treatment in the past, and am as a result a rather anxious patient. Family members recommended Oakmead to me, and I am very glad I have been treated there. The whole surgery is hugely relaxing, from the reception staff to the dental nurse and dentist. All are friendly and reassuring, which has made what I expected to be a very stressful process actually calm and pleasant. The dentist very clearly and calmly explained how they could help me. The treatment is going very well, and I am sure my new dentures will be great. I was reassured from the first visit, when I went away with a treatment plan with costs clearly set out. The cost, although not trivial, is actually a little less than I was expecting.

From the welcome by the reception team, Jill the hygienist and Andy the dentist the whole experience was fantastic. What a team. They are friendly welcoming and caring. I can’t fault the service at all.

Everything

Everyone at the surgery is always very friendly and helpful

Paul took the time to consider how to reinsert my implant after it fell out (fitted somewhere else). He came up with a plan, and I left my tooth with him so that he could work on it in advance of my appointment. His plan worked with no complications and I am very happy with the result. In fact it feels more comfortable than it did before!

Everyone was kind, thoughtful and Effcient

14th August 2025

I saw Paul Cassidy for an extraction. My previous dentist had insisted I should have sedation and had told me he might leave in part of the root of the tooth. This made me anxious. Paul put me at ease from the start, explained everything in detail and was really gentle. I am so glad I was referred to him by Gabriella.

I feel confident with the treatment and staff.They explain precedures/treatment well.

11th August 2025

Very impressed by the whole dental team. From booking the appointment to the treatment from Jill, the whole process was seamless. You can tell by the friendliness and attitude of the whole team that it must be a great place to work. I have always been nervous about a trip to the dentist but found myself weirdly relaxed at Oakmead!

9th August 2025

The treatment received felt personal and professional. The dentist was efficient and gentle, and listened to my concerns and then addressed them satisfactorily. He adjusted my partial denture and made sure it was comfortable.

Debbie was excellent and gave me everything I needed to improve my dental health and did so with such a friendly manner.

5th August 2025

The Hygenist was, as always, careful to explain everything. She always listens to my concerns and adjusts things to suit me. Altogether an excellent experience.

Very friendly and the treatment is carried out with great care and gentleness

Mr Hopkins listened carefully to my concerns, explained clearly the causes and outlined the possible choices. He answered my questions to help me make an informed decision, and made suggestions as to how I can improve things myself.
