We offer ceramic bridges (using dental porcelain for example) as we believe they offer our patients the best possible functional and aesthetic results providing long-term stability, precise fit, high durability and high biocompatibility. Other common materials used to produce bridges include non-precious metal alloys or gold plus you can consider a combination product – a metal-ceramic option is also possible. It is increasingly common for zirconia to be used to manufacture a dental bridge due to it's strong and durable properties. Zirconia bridges can last for a lifetime with proper care and maintenance. Ask your dentist about what materials are available to you and their benefits at your initial consultation. When thinking about your preferred material for your bridge procedure, it may be prudent to consider the benefits it will provide to your ongoing oral health and well-being.
