| Consideration | Traditional Bridge | Implant Bridge |
|---|---|---|
| Adjacent Teeth | Must be filed down | Remain untouched |
| Bone Loss | Does not prevent resorption | Actively prevents resorption |
| Lifespan | 10–15 years | Implants can last a lifetime |
| Stability | High | Maximum |
Dental implant bridges offer better stability, security, and aesthetics and can cost about the same as traditional bridgework. Still not sure which option is right? Or want to know how much your case will cost? Book a consultation to assess your options and see what best fits your needs, budget, and lifestyle.
The process of receiving fixed implant bridges involves several stages and can take a few months. The duration varies based on factors such as the number of teeth being replaced, the amount of bone available, the number of implants required to support the bridge, and whether the implants will be placed in a single session or in two phases for temporary purposes.
In some cases, we can provide immediate loading with temporary teeth.
We use full digital design to map your smile and offer “trial smiles” so you can see the results before we begin. Plus, as it emerges from the gum line rather than sitting on top, it’s more discreet than traditional types.
With proper care, the implants themselves are designed to be a lifelong solution. The bridge itself can last up to 20 years.
A 3-tooth implant bridge replaces three missing teeth in a row without placing an individual implant for each lost tooth. Typically, two dental implants are placed at either end of the gap.
Just like natural teeth.
While you may have a temporary bridge fitted on the same day, the biological process can take 3 months.
