Dental Bridge in Albania: A Complete Guide for UK Patients
A dental bridge is one of the most reliable ways to replace missing teeth. It spans the gap left by lost teeth, using adjacent teeth as anchors. In Albania, bridges are crafted from premium materials at a fraction of UK prices — savings of up to 75%.
Types of Dental Bridge
Traditional Bridge
The most common type. The teeth on either side of the gap are prepared (reduced in size) to support crowns, with a false tooth (pontic) suspended between them. Available in zirconia or porcelain-fused-to-metal.
Maryland Bridge
A conservative option that bonds to the back of adjacent teeth with metal or ceramic wings. No grinding of healthy teeth required. Best for replacing a single front tooth.
Cantilever Bridge
Supported by only one adjacent tooth rather than two. Used in specific clinical situations where only one suitable supporting tooth is available.
Implant-Supported Bridge
The bridge is anchored on dental implants rather than natural teeth. Ideal for replacing multiple consecutive missing teeth without grinding healthy teeth. Learn more on our implants page.
