Maryland bridge and Composite Bonding

This gentleman was unhappy with his smile. He had several options:

Staying as he was
Wearing a metal denture
Having his teeth built up allowing the use of a Maryland Bridge to close the gaps
Losing more teeth, and considering dental implants further down the line

He opted for the third choice. His teeth were built up in two hours using composite bonding, and we waited three weeks to make sure all was well. Both the bridge preparation and fit appointments were 90 minutes each. So in less than eight weeks this gentleman’s smile was transformed.

What Bob Said

“I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to Tom for his sterling work in giving me my smile back. My ‘mole rat’ look was not an inducement to smile, however funny the joke and I was always self conscious, not my usual self at all. With his affable manner and easy way of describing all options and procedures I was at ease straight away and knew I was in a safe and capable pair of hands. And the result! My smile is back and I can now face the world with more than a wry grin, but laugh in the face of adversity!! Thanks again from this very happy and satisfied customer” – Bob
