Dental Bridges
by Specialists
Our Edmonton dental bridges provide a fixed solution for replacing one or more missing teeth, restoring function and appearance.
At Vivid Specialized Dentistry, bridges are designed with prosthodontist-led planning to ensure proper fit, bite alignment, and long-term stability. Each restoration is crafted to integrate naturally with your existing teeth.
What Are Dental Bridges?
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the adjacent natural teeth or implants.
Bridges help restore chewing function, maintain bite alignment, and prevent surrounding teeth from shifting after tooth loss.

FAQs
How long does a dental bridge last?
With proper care, a dental bridge can last 10 to 15 years or longer. Good oral hygiene and regular maintenance play a major role in longevity.
Will a bridge feel strange at first?
It’s normal for a bridge to feel different initially. Most patients adjust within a short time, and refinements can be made if needed.
Can teeth under a bridge still get cavities?
Yes. While the bridge itself won’t decay, the supporting teeth can. Daily cleaning and routine visits are essential.
Will a bridge affect my speech?
Some patients notice minor changes at first, but speech typically returns to normal quickly as your mouth adapts.
What if my bridge breaks or becomes loose?
Contact us right away. We’ll assess whether it can be repaired or needs replacement—prompt care helps prevent further issues.
How does a bridge compare to a partial denture?
A bridge is fixed in place, while a partial denture is removable. Bridges tend to feel more natural and require less daily maintenance.
