As a clinical director and dentist with a special interest in missing teeth dentistry since 2009, Dr Ali Rifai is trained and experienced in multiple methods for replacing missing teeth, offering several types of dental bridges.
A dental bridge can be quite affordable for replacing a single missing tooth, but when you need to replace multiple missing teeth, the costs can quickly add up. Dental bridges are typically charged per pontic (per tooth).
Dental bridges won’t be the cheapest option to replace missing teeth, nor will they cost the most.
They’re your mid-weight option to replace one or more lost teeth, but it’s essential to bear in mind that, unlike dental implants, dental bridges won’t be a one-off cost.
They’ll require renewal and replacement every 5/15 years.
So, if you’re intent on choosing a dental bridge as your fake tooth, consider the future costs and compare them against other options to fully understand what you’re purchasing and what it might cost you long-term.
