What is bridges?
Allo Dental Clinic provides bridges near Yonge and Lawrence in Toronto. A dental bridge replaces a missing tooth by anchoring to neighbouring teeth. It can restore chewing and close a visible gap when the support teeth are suitable. Your dentist explains the diagnosis, options, expected fees, and referral needs before treatment begins.
A bridge is one way to replace a tooth, but not the only way.
We assess the missing tooth space, gums, bite, and neighbouring teeth before recommending a bridge.
Implants, partial dentures, or no replacement may also be discussed. The right option depends on health, timing, budget, and the condition of the teeth beside the gap.
Is bridges right for you?
