We are committed to helping you regain a confident smile, enjoy the foods you love, and laugh with complete confidence.
At Bright Smiles Dental Practice, we understand that despite your best efforts, there are times when tooth loss is unavoidable. This may be due to extensive damage, infection or trauma.
We also recognise the wider impact that missing teeth can have, from affecting your ability to chew and speak comfortably to changes in facial structure and reduced self-confidence.
The good news is that there are several effective and natural-looking options available to restore your smile. Our caring and experienced team will help you explore the most suitable tooth replacement solutions, tailored to your individual needs, goals and lifestyle.
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by using the adjacent natural teeth for support. There are different types of bridges, and we will guide you on the best option based on the number of teeth missing, their location and your overall dental health.
Bridges are securely bonded in place and can restore both function and appearance. Just like natural teeth, they require good oral hygiene and regular dental care to maintain.
Dentures offer a removable solution for replacing one, several or all missing teeth. We provide a range of denture options, including partial and full dentures, made using high-quality materials for comfort, functionality and a natural appearance.
Modern dentures are lighter, more secure and more comfortable than ever. We will carefully assess which type of denture is most suitable for you.
These are often used as a more affordable option and can be suitable for both full and partial dentures. Acrylic dentures are easy to adjust and repair, making them a good choice for short- or medium-term use. However, they tend to be slightly bulkier and may not offer the same level of comfort or fit as other types.
Made from a lightweight cobalt-chrome alloy, metal dentures are thinner, stronger and more durable than plastic alternatives. They typically offer a more secure and comfortable fit and are often less bulky in the mouth. Metal dentures are a popular choice for patients seeking long-term reliability.
Flexible dentures are made from a soft, flexible nylon material that gently hugs the gums. They are particularly comfortable and ideal for patients who find traditional dentures difficult to wear. Flexi-dentures are also more discreet, as they do not require metal clasps and blend more naturally with your mouth.
Dental implants are a fixed and highly effective solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as an anchor. Once healed, a crown, bridge or denture can be securely attached, restoring both appearance and function. This means you don’t need to worry about dentures slipping or falling out, and you can eat more comfortably, even harder foods.
If you are considering dental implants, we will assess your suitability and guide you through the process
In some cases, the best results are achieved through a combination of treatments. This may be suitable if you have several missing teeth or additional cosmetic or structural concerns. We will work with you to create a personalised treatment plan designed to restore both the appearance and function of your smile.
If you are missing one or more teeth, we invite you to contact us today to book a consultation. We will guide you through your options and support you in making informed decisions about your oral health and wellbeing.
