Implant-Retained Bridges

It is a fixed bridge supported by dental implants rather than natural teeth. A small number of implants are placed in the jaw and used to anchor a row of replacement teeth above.

This depends on how many teeth are missing and where. Often, two or three implants can support a bridge replacing several teeth. Your dentist will advise after assessment.

Implant placement is carried out under local anaesthesia. Most patients find recovery easier than expected, with mild soreness that settles within days.

Treatment usually spans several months. This allows time for implants to integrate fully with the bone before the final bridge is fitted.
