Almost better looking than the originals – a perfect way to replace one or several teeth

If you have one or more teeth missing, a restoration in the form of an all-ceramic bridge can be specially made for you in our laboratory.

A bridge consists of:

  • the central part with the replacement teeth (called ‘pontics’),
  • and the wing-like appendages (called ‘retainers’) at each end that are used to attach the bridge to the neighbouring teeth. The retainers are firmly and permanently attached to existing natural teeth (or implants). (The teeth to which the bridge retainers are attached are also known as the abutment teeth).

A bridge is a highly individualised dental restoration. There are many different ways in which it can be constructed and attached. The high-quality partnership between your dentist and our laboratory is an important factor in deciding upon and implementing the best possible custom solution for you. Whether your bridge is the permanent or removable kind, whether it is attached using inlays crowns or by other means: if made of advanced, aesthetic, high-strength and biocompatible all-ceramic, it will be guaranteed to give you back your carefree smile. And a little extra quality of life!

All-ceramic dental restorations are strong, secure, great looking and make a real difference to your quality of life.

A brilliant solution – implants can also be used when replacing one or more missing teeth.

If you have one or more teeth missing, and if you want to once again feel as if you had your own teeth with their own roots, then the Rolls-Royce of dental restorations could be the solution for you: an implant-based restoration.

An implant is a permanent artificial root that is embedded in the jawbone and, just like a natural root, cannot be seen. A tooth restoration is then fitted to the implant. This can take the form of:

  • an all-ceramic crown to replace one missing tooth,
  • an all-ceramic bridge to replace several missing teeth.
  • And if there are many teeth missing, implants can be used as the basis for securing a partial prosthesis or full denture.

Dental restorations based on implants are secure, dependable, strong and highly aesthetic. They feel just like your own teeth with their own natural roots. Many people find that an implant-supported dental restoration gives their quality of life an immeasurable boost.
