Tooth loss can be a devastating blow to your confidence. Fortunately, modern dentistry has many options for replacing your missing teeth. At Ellesmere Kennedy Dental Centre, we are the go-to for replacing missing teeth in Scarborough, whether you need to replace a single tooth or your full dentition. We have helped countless patients with their smiles over the years.
Bridges
A bridge is designed to bridge the gap in your smile. They are custom-made to fit the size, shape, and colour of your existing teeth and rely on them to be secured.
A traditional bridge is the most commonly used type of dental bridges. A replacement for the missing tooth – or missing teeth – is built and attached to two crowns. The crowns are then affixed to the teeth on each side of the gap, effectively filling the empty space.
Other types of attachments exist as well; bridges can use implants or metal wings as support, each coming with their pros and cons. With the help of an experienced dentist, you can find the bridge that is right for you and get your smile back!

Implants
Dental implants are commonly used for patients who have lost one or more teeth due to injury, decay, or other oral health issues. Implants are artificial roots that are placed into your jawbone to hold crowns, bridges or dentures. They are made of titanium metal and are used to help restore a person’s ability to chew and improve their appearances.
