Someone mentioned a bridge and you would like the plain version? Start here, then bring your questions to our McPhillips Street clinic.
Let's find a time
Picture a replacement tooth joined to supports on either side of an empty space. That connected piece is a bridge. The supports may be crowned natural teeth, dental implants, or a combination chosen for that particular gap.
Because it stays fixed in your mouth, you never take it out at night the way you would a partial denture. Whether it suits you depends on what an examination shows, so patients from every part of the city begin at the same place: a conversation and an assessment at Winnipeg North Dental.
Explore dental bridges
One or more missing teeth can be replaced by a custom piece shaped for that gap.
Chewing, speaking comfortably and keeping the spacing of your bite are common reasons people consider one.
Cleaning beneath a connected tooth takes a different tool, and we can show you how it works.
Support is the first design question. Remaining teeth, implant position, your bite and the length of the space all point toward one structure or another.
Crowns fit over suitable teeth beside the gap, and the artificial tooth is suspended between them.
Implants can carry a bridge for several missing teeth, leaving natural teeth out of the job of anchoring.
None of these designs fits everyone. An examination is what shows which one, if any, makes sense for your mouth.
This is custom work completed in stages, and the sequence below may shift a little depending on the design selected for you.
Request your visitWe look at your teeth, gums, bite and available support, then talk through whether a bridge is a reasonable choice.
Anchor teeth are prepared if the design calls for it. Scans or impressions, bite records and shade details then guide the people making your bridge.
While the permanent piece is being made, a temporary bridge may cover prepared teeth and keep your smile looking complete.
Before anything is final, we check how it contacts neighbouring teeth, meets your bite, looks and allows cleaning. Then it is bonded or attached.
Coming in with a simple description of what is bothering you is plenty. It helps us to hear how long the tooth has been missing and what you find hardest about it.
Costs vary with the design, so ask for an estimate once a recommendation has been made. Your insurance or CDCP plan decides what is covered.
Where your bridge appointments happen, at Winnipeg North Dental.
A first bridge can sound like a big undertaking. Ask us to slow down, show you a step, or repeat anything that went by too quickly. We would rather answer twice than have you guess.
Ask what will be done at each appointment so that no stage comes as a surprise.
Sensitive teeth or nerves about dental work are worth mentioning before treatment starts.
Let us know if you need a moment during a longer appointment.
Living with it
Once it is in, the replacement tooth cannot decay, but natural anchor teeth still can. Good daily habits and regular examinations keep watch over them.
Ordinary floss cannot slide down through joined teeth. A threader, super floss, interdental brush or water flosser may reach underneath instead.
Movement, food that keeps getting trapped, bleeding, swelling, a lingering bad taste, chips or a changed bite are all reasons to get in touch.
Checking margins, gums and bite over time is part of protecting the work and the teeth holding it.
If something feels urgent, please phone (204) 338-3003 rather than using the online form.

Helpful details about dental bridges in Winnipeg.
Ask our teamIt is a fixed restoration that joins one or more artificial teeth to supports beside the gap. Those supports can be natural teeth with crowns or dental implants.
No. Being cemented or attached, a fixed bridge stays put, and only a dental professional would remove it. If you are picturing something that comes out for cleaning, that describes a partial denture.
An examination answers that. We consider how healthy the bordering teeth and gums are, the size of the space, and how your teeth meet when you bite.
Nobody can promise a set number. Its lifespan is shaped by the support underneath, your bite, gum health, decay, materials, cleaning and maintenance.
