Why getting a dental bridge abroad?
A dental bridge, unlike a dental crown, involves several teeth. A dental bridge is therefore a set of interconnected crowns. The bridge is permanently attached to adjacent healthy teeth, which are also known as “abutment teeth”.
A dental bridge will give you the aesthetic of a natural looking smile and will allow you to eat comfortably again.
Like any other dental care, a dental bridge is expensive. However, getting a dental bridge abroad allows you to make savings while enjoying qualitative and professional care.
Why choose a dental bridge?
Do you want to replace one or multiple missing teeth? Getting a dental bridge abroad is the solution for you.
The dental bridge offers an aesthetic result that looks like your natural teeth.
Strong and resistant, a dental bridge makes it much more comfortable to chew your food.
There is no surgery required to put a dental bridge in place, just classic dental work in the mouth.
You take care of a dental bridge just as you would take care of real teeth, in addition to using dental brushes and dental floss.
A dental crown from the clinic El Cedro is very affordable: you can get a bridge with 3 parts for 1 110€ (£993).

1. Metal-ceramic bridge |
2. Pure zirconia bridge |
You have the choice between 2 types of materials for your dental bridge: A metal-ceramic bridge or a pure zirconia bridge.
Whether you choose metal or zirconium, the frame of your crowns will always be covered with several layers of porcelain to make sure the result looks as natural as possible.
Gatting a dental bridge abroad; the procedure
1st Appointment
Preliminary examination and dental impressions
During the preliminary examination, the dentist will take an x-ray of your dentition, with special attention to the area that will be treated.
Finally, the dentist takes an impression that will be used by our prosthetists to make your dental bridge.
2nd Appointment
Preparing the teeth and fitting the temporary bridge
1 to 2 months later, during your second visit, the dentist will prepare the damaged tooth or teeth : trim them to create space for the final prosthesis. A new impression must be taken before the final prosthesis can be fitted.
While your final bridge is being made, the dentist will fit you with a temporary bridge for about 4 weeks.
3rd Appointment
Installing and sealing the prosthesis and adjusting the occlusion
During this third and final visit, the dentist will put your final crowns in place. He is going to check if they are positioned correctly, if they properly adjust to your gum and if they are the right colour.
Your bridge will then be permanently sealed, using a sealing paste.
Finally, your dentist will check the occlusion of your teeth with blue paper. If necessary, a final adjustment will be made.
