- Follow-Up Care: You’ll receive tailored cleaning instructions and ongoing care recommendations.

FAQs – Dental Bridges at Brisbane Smile Boutique
- How long do dental bridges last? With good care, a bridge can last 10–15 years or longer.
- Are dental bridges better than implants? It depends on the case. Bridges are quicker and more affordable; implants preserve jaw bone but take longer.
- Will it look natural? Yes, we ensure perfect colour and shape match for a seamless smile.
- How do I clean under a bridge? Superfloss or interdental brushes should be used daily to clean beneath the pontic.
The teeth either side of the gap are prepared and the bridge is precision designed and bonded in place
