Dental Bridges in Peterborough, ON

Restore your smile with lasting confidence. Dental bridges replace missing teeth with natural-looking results—helping you eat, speak, and smile with comfort again.

Personalized Tooth Replacement in Peterborough

A missing tooth can impact more than just your appearance. At Cornerstone Family Dentistry, we use dental bridges to restore your bite and prevent future dental issues. With decades of experience serving Peterborough families, we offer bridge solutions that are functional, comfortable, and made to last.

Bridging the Gap—Literally

Dental bridges fill the space left by one or more missing teeth. Using your natural teeth or implants as support, a bridge holds a custom-made replacement tooth securely in place. This helps prevent shifting, supports jaw alignment, and restores your ability to chew and speak naturally.

Designed for Comfort, Made to Last

We use high-quality materials and precise digital impressions to create bridges that fit seamlessly into your smile. Every bridge is colour-matched to your natural teeth and carefully shaped to ensure comfort and long-term durability.

A Smart Step Toward Long-Term Health

Bonding doesn’t just enhance how your teeth look—it helps protect them. It can strengthen worn edges, shield sensitive roots, and prevent small chips from becoming bigger problems down the line.

More Than a Cosmetic Fix

Replacing missing teeth is about more than appearance. A dental bridge helps:

Maintain proper bite alignment
Prevent teeth from shifting
Protect jawbone and facial structure
Improve chewing and speech
Support oral and overall health

It’s a long-term investment in your comfort, function, and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a good candidate for a bridge?

If you have one or more missing teeth and healthy surrounding teeth or implants, a bridge may be right for you. We’ll evaluate your needs during your visit.

How do I care for a dental bridge?

Brush and floss daily, clean around the bridge, and attend regular dental checkups. We’ll show you how to maintain it properly.

What happens if I don’t replace a missing tooth?

Over time, nearby teeth may shift, leading to bite problems, jaw pain, and changes in appearance. A bridge helps prevent these issues.

Is a bridge covered by insurance?

Many insurance plans cover part of the cost of a bridge. Our team will help verify your benefits and explain payment options.

Will people be able to see the bridge?

No. We colour-match your bridge to your natural teeth and ensure it blends in seamlessly for a natural look.

Can a bridge improve my bite?

Yes. A properly placed bridge helps restore bite balance and prevents strain on surrounding teeth and jaw joints.

What’s the difference between a bridge and an implant?

A bridge relies on neighbouring teeth for support, while an implant is placed into the jawbone. We’ll review both options with you and recommend the best fit.

Is the procedure painful?

We prioritize gentle techniques and patient comfort. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during treatment.

How long does a dental bridge last?

With proper care, dental bridges can last 10 to 15 years or longer. We’ll provide care tips to help extend your bridge’s lifespan.

What is a dental bridge?
