At Ottewell Smiles, we are dedicated to offering our patients a range of restorative dental options, tailored to meet their unique needs and preferences. One such option, dental bridges, provides an effective solution for those seeking to restore their smile without opting for partial dentures or dental implants. Conveniently located in Edmonton, Ottewell Smiles welcomes both new and returning patients to explore the benefits of dental bridges. Our knowledgeable and friendly team is here to discuss your specific dental needs and help determine if this option is the right choice for your smile restoration journey.
At Ottewell Smiles, we offer a variety of dental bridges, each designed to address different situations and dental requirements.
Dental bridges are a popular and reliable method for filling the gaps left by missing teeth. These bridges not only restore the aesthetic appeal of your smile but also play a critical role in maintaining your oral health and functionality.
The most common type of dental bridge, featuring an artificial tooth (known as a pontic) flanked by two dental crowns. These crowns are anchored to the neighboring teeth, effectively “bridging” the gap left by the missing tooth. This type of bridge is ideal for those who have strong, healthy teeth adjacent to the missing tooth, providing a durable and secure solution.
A broken or cracked tooth can result from trauma, biting into something hard, or underlying issues such as decay. Without prompt treatment, these injuries can lead to infection, further damage, and significant discomfort. Our team can quickly assess the damage and provide the necessary repair, whether it’s a filling, crown, or more extensive restoration.
Broken braces or wires can cause discomfort and even injury to the mouth’s soft tissues. If you experience a broken orthodontic appliance, it’s important to seek emergency care to avoid further issues and ensure your orthodontic treatment stays on track.
For patients seeking a less invasive option, Maryland Bridges might be the perfect choice. These bridges use a metal or porcelain framework bonded to the back of the adjacent teeth, offering a secure yet conservative approach to replacing a missing tooth. Maryland Bridges are particularly beneficial for areas in the mouth that are less subjected to significant bite pressure.
Opting for dental bridges at Ottewell Smiles comes with a host of benefits that extend beyond just filling the gaps in your smile. One of the most significant advantages is the restoration of functionality, allowing you to chew and eat comfortably, which greatly enhances your overall quality of life. Additionally, bridges provide a cosmetic enhancement by filling in the gaps, thereby boosting your confidence and helping you smile freely without concern. Missing teeth can also affect speech, making it difficult to articulate words clearly. Dental bridges help restore normal speech patterns, allowing you to speak with clarity and confidence.

Dental bridges play a crucial role in maintaining your facial structure. When teeth are missing, the face can begin to sag over time, leading to a more aged appearance. Dental bridges help prevent this by supporting the natural shape of your face. Another important benefit of dental bridges is their ability to prevent tooth drift. When a tooth is lost, the neighboring teeth can start to shift into the empty space, leading to bite problems and potential oral health issues. Dental bridges help maintain the proper alignment of your teeth, ensuring that your bite remains even and functional. Furthermore, these bridges distribute bite forces evenly across your teeth, reducing stress on individual teeth and helping to prevent further dental issues.
