Dental bridge in Poland

If you have missing teeth, your dentist can close or bridge the gaps in your smile with a dental bridge. This treatment is widely available in Poland and much cheaper than in the UK.

Dental bridges are a popular dental restoration that can improve both the function and appearance of your smile. Dental bridges are an effective solution for replacing missing teeth and can help restore your ability to chew and speak properly. Bridges can also help prevent further dental problems caused by the shifting of your remaining teeth, which can lead to misalignment and other dental issues.

  1. What is a dental bridge?

    A bridge is a fixed dental restoration (a fixed dental prosthesis) used to replace one or more missing teeth by joining an artificial tooth definitively to adjacent teeth or dental implants. It will literally bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth.
