Dental Implant Bridges
Missing teeth can affect your smile, confidence and quality of life. Regain your confident smile with dental implant bridges, a highly reliable tooth replacement solution.
At Ceramic Implant Centre, we focus in providing high-quality ceramic dental implant bridges in Melbourne to help you bridge the gaps in your smile.
Dental bridges are the ideal treatment option when you have one or more missing teeth. The process involves placing a crown on the teeth neighbouring each side of the gap. These crowns are then joined together by artificial teeth called pontics, but your neighbouring teeth must be healthy and strong to support the artificial teeth.
Traditional dental bridges and implant bridges function in more or less the same way. While the former relies on your natural teeth for support, implant bridges are connected to dental implants that are securely anchored into your jawbone on either end of the gap, making them a trusted solution for replacing multiple missing teeth.
You can enjoy the following benefits when you choose dental implant bridges:
- Implant bridges preserve the jawbone, with the implants mimicking your natural tooth roots and stimulating the jawbone
- They look, feel and function like your natural teeth
- Offers unmatched stability as they are anchored to the bone with implants
- Dental implants can last for decades with the right care
- Provides greater comfort than dentures that sit on your gums
- They protect the integrity of your surrounding teeth because your neighbouring teeth don’t need to be shaped to support the bridge
- Made from Zirconia, these implant bridges are biocompatible and ideal for patients with metal sensitivities.
What Happens During a Dental Crown Procedure?
At Ceramic Implant Centre, we have designed a straightforward procedure to replace missing teeth with an implant-supported dental bridge. This is how it works
It begins with a consultation with our dentist, where we’ll assess your mouth, evaluate oral health and discuss your goals. We will then create a personalised treatment plan using innovative dental technology, like 3D scans, to plan and ensure precision when placing the implants and bridge.
Our experienced dentists will then surgically place the premium quality ceramic implants into the jawbone. You will be given local anaesthesia, ensuring you experience minimal discomfort during this process. Once the implants are placed, we may cover them with a temporary restoration, allowing them to heal.
We will take impressions of your teeth. They will be sent to our skilled lab technicians, who will design a bespoke ceramic bridge that closely resembles your natural teeth in just a few days, depending on your case requirements.
Finally, your dental implant bridge will be secured to the implants. We’ll make sure your implant bridge fits like a glove and make minor tweaks, if needed, before securing your new smile in place.
Premium Implant Materials & Cutting-Edge Technology
At Ceramic Implant Centre, we are all about delivering high end dental care. When it comes to restoring your smile, we use only premium materials from brands like Straumann, Z-systems, Ceraroot, Zeramex and Nobel Biocare, known for their quality, durability and strength. Your dental prosthesis will also be crafted by our lab technicians using meticulous attention to detail.
We don’t stop there. Our dentists also use advanced dental technology like 3D Scans and Digital Smile Design to ensure a smooth implant process that restores your smile exactly how you envisioned it.
How Much Does an Implant Bridge Cost in Melbourne?
The cost depends on factors such as the number of teeth that need to be replaced, the complexity of the procedure and the need for pre-operative treatments. After carefully assessing your mouth, oral health and smile goals in an initial consultation, we will provide you with an accurate cost.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
On average, your implant bridge can last more than 15 years. However, with proper care and maintenance, you can maximise its lifespan. Brushing your teeth twice daily, flossing once daily, and visiting your dentist at least twice a year can help make your implant bridge last longer.
If you have multiple missing teeth adjacent to one another, you are a candidate for implant bridges. Good oral and gum health, and sufficient jawbone density are necessary to be eligible for this procedure.
However, even if you don’t meet these criteria, we may be able to solve these problems with other dental treatments, ensuring your chance at getting dental implant bridges.
If you already have dentures or a conventional dental bridge, you can still replace it with an implant bridge.
You should care for your dental implant bridge the same way you care for your natural teeth. A good oral hygiene routine that includes daily brushing and flossing, plus regular dental visits, will help you maximise the longevity of your implant bridges.
Unlike dentures, your implant dental bridge cannot be removed by anyone other than a dentist. However, typically, you wouldn’t need to remove your implant bridge until it’s time to get it replaced.
