read moreWe provide dental bridges in Salisbury, a replacement for a tooth that is securely held in place by crowns on neighbouring teeth. They are almost as permanent as an implant. As dental bridges need to be attached to crowns to neighbouring teeth this does mean that you will need crowns fitting if you don't already have them. If the neighbouring teeth are healthy this may cause unnecessary damage to them, so a dental implant may be a better choice. Everyone's teeth are different, so it's important to make sure you choose the best method for you.

They can be used in place of large, unsightly fillings giving the tooth a natural, unblemished look. Rob will spend time to communicate with you to ensure perfectly matching crowns to your other teeth.
