Dental Bridges in Vaughan

At My City Dental in Vaughan, we provide custom dental bridges that restore the beauty, function, and balance of your smile. Our bridges are crafted for precision and comfort, helping you chew easily, speak clearly, and regain confidence in your smile.
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge replaces missing teeth by attaching artificial teeth (pontics) to nearby natural teeth or implants (abutments). It fills the gap left by missing teeth, restoring your bite and smile. Bridges help maintain facial shape, improve chewing and speech, and prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of place

What Happens During a Dental Bridge Procedure?
Traditional or Cantilever Bridge
- The supporting teeth are reshaped to hold crowns.
- Impressions or digital scans are taken to design your bridge.
- A temporary bridge is placed while your custom restoration is made.
- On your final visit, the bridge is checked for fit, bite, and color, then permanently cemented.
Implant-Supported Bridge
- Dental implants are surgically placed in the jawbone.
- After healing and integration, the bridge is attached to the implants for a secure, permanent result.
- Our Vaughan team ensures comfort and precision at every step for a natural, long-lasting outcome.

Replacing missing teeth early helps protect your remaining natural teeth and preserve overall oral health
Material Options for Dental Bridges
We use only high-quality, biocompatible materials designed for both beauty and durability:
- Porcelain: Natural color and shine; ideal for front teeth
- Zirconia: Strong and aesthetic; excellent for front or back teeth
- Resin Composite: Affordable and blends well with natural enamel
- Metal or Gold Alloys: Long-lasting and durable, often used for molars
Bone Grafts and Dental Bridges
If bone loss has occurred due to missing teeth, a bone graft may be required before placing an implant-supported bridge.
- Missing teeth: Decay, injury, or extraction removes teeth.
- Gum disease: Infection destroys bone and loosens teeth.
- Aging: Wear, bone loss, and dry mouth weaken support.
- Jaw trauma: Accidents or blows fracture bone and teeth.
