Dental Bridges Bankstown

Looking for dental bridges in Bankstown? A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the teeth on either side of the gap. At Memon Dental Care in Bankstown, our team assesses your teeth and gums, explains your options, and designs a bridge to suit your mouth and your bite. It is worth discussing missing teeth early. A gap can allow nearby teeth to drift, change the way your teeth bite together, and contribute to other dental problems over time.

Dr Mohammed Sohail Memon is a general dentist with advanced training in prosthodontics (MDSc) and over 25 years of clinical experience, and he draws on this training when planning bridge treatment. A bridge uses dental crowns on the supporting teeth, so we check that those teeth are healthy enough first. If you would like to compare options, we can also explain whether dental implants may suit you. Call 02 9893 9044 or book online to arrange a consultation at Suite 1, 1 Jacob Street, Bankstown.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do dental bridges last?

How long a dental bridge lasts varies from person to person. It depends on your oral hygiene, the health of the supporting teeth, your bite and regular dental visits. Cleaning carefully under the bridge every day and attending routine dental check-ups helps us monitor it, and we will explain what to expect for your case.

How do dental bridges compare with implants?

A bridge anchors to the teeth beside the gap, while a dental implant replaces the tooth root and sits in the jawbone. The two options differ in treatment time, cost, and how they affect neighbouring teeth, and each suits different situations. Our Bankstown team will assess your mouth and explain whether a bridge or a dental implant may suit your goals and budget.

Can I eat normally with a dental bridge?

Once your final bridge is in place and your bite feels comfortable, most people can eat normally. We recommend avoiding very hard or sticky foods, as they can put strain on a bridge over time. Your dentist will give you advice for your situation.

How do I clean under a dental bridge?

Use floss threaders, super floss or interdental brushes to clean under your bridge every day, as well as brushing twice a day. Our Bankstown team will show you how to clean around your bridge at your fitting appointment.

How much do dental bridges cost in Bankstown?

The cost depends on the number of teeth being replaced and the materials you choose. Call our Bankstown team on 02 9893 9044 or book a consultation, and we will explain your options and the cost before treatment begins.
