A Fixed Solution for Multiple Missing Teeth
Edmonton Implant-Supported Bridges
What Are
Implant-Supported Bridges?
An implant-supported bridge is a secure, long-lasting solution that uses dental implants to anchor a bridge — replacing multiple missing teeth in a row without the need for removable appliances.
Our Edmonton implant-supported bridges are planned by prosthodontic and periodontal specialists, with every phase coordinated from diagnosis to final restoration for a natural look, a secure feel, and results built for the long run.
How They Differ From
Traditional Bridges
A traditional dental bridge is anchored to the natural teeth on either side of a gap. An implant-supported bridge is anchored to dental implants instead; so it doesn’t rely on adjacent teeth for support, and it stays fixed in place.

Why an Implant-Supported Bridge Is Worth Considering
- Your healthy teeth stay whole. Nothing beside the gap needs to be reshaped to hold the bridge.
- The bite stays stable. The bridge is fixed to the implants, so it does not lift or shift while you eat.
- The bone stays active. Implants pass chewing forces into the jaw, helping preserve bone where teeth were lost.
- The result looks natural. Our in-house lab matches the bridge to the shape and shade of your surrounding teeth.
Keeping an Implant-Supported Bridge Clean
Cleaning under the bridge is the part patients ask about most. A water flosser and the floss threaders we show you reach beneath the bridge where a regular brush cannot. Paired with brushing and professional cleanings every three to four months, this keeps the gum and bone around the implants healthy and the bridge secure.

FAQs
What does treatment for Edmonton implant-supported bridges involve?
Treatment begins with a detailed consultation and diagnostic phase. After implant placement, a healing period allows the implants to integrate with the bone. Your custom bridge is then attached to complete your smile.
Am I a candidate?
Many patients are candidates, even those who’ve been told otherwise in the past. Bone grafting or staged treatment may be recommended in some cases. We’ll evaluate your situation and explain your options clearly.
What if I'm missing most or all of my teeth?
If you’re missing most or all of your teeth, a full-arch solution like Teeth in a Day (All-on-X) may be a better fit. If you currently wear dentures, we can also discuss implant-stabilized options. We’ll help you choose the path that aligns with your goals.
