What are dental bridges?
A bridge is a fixed long-term solution to replacing missing teeth. The bridge consists of an abutment(s) and pontic(s).
An abutment is a tooth used to carry the false tooth. A pontic is a term given to the false tooth. There are two types of bridges commonly used in dentistry:
- Resin Bonded
- Conventional
Book your consultation for Bridges
Resin Bonded Bridges
These require no/very little preparation of teeth. The bridge consists of a false porcelain tooth with a metal wing. The metal wing is bonded onto the tooth adjacent to the space with an adhesive dental cement. RBBs can last up to 7 years.
Advantages
- Cost effective
- Aesthetic
- No drilling or anaesthetic
- Good provisional before or during implant treatment
Disadvantages
- Metal wing can cause some greying
- Shorter lifespan than conventional bridges and implants
- Case specific
Conventional Bridges
Traditionally bridges involved preparation of the abutment teeth (similar to crown preparations) and the bridge would be conventionally cemented on in place. They are good for replacing one or more teeth and this type of bridge has a long history of success. They can be made in metal-ceramic or all ceramic.
Advantages
- Aesthetic
- Long term (10-15yrs)
- Suitable for larger spaces and at the back of the mouth
Disadvantages
- Teeth need to be prepared
- Need suitable teeth to use as abutments

Why patient's love DentalKind
By far the best dentistry I’ve experienced. I cannot praise the excellence demonstrated along with professionalism and caring friendly efficient reception staff. I needed urgent treatment that was... carried out both promptly and effectively in perfect surroundings. I’m looking forward to my next appointment… how often is that stated 🙏read more
Hello… my experience with the hygienists and Dr Sunil was at a very professional level when I visited in December 2022….and the dental practice has reached a high level in all aspects,Well done and... keep up the good work the whole team are doing!read more
Having been to several dentists to repair my jaw I have found that DentalKind in Billericay to be the most compassionate of them all. They take patients welfare seriously. I am having major surgery... on my jaw with replacement teeth on a neo-arch. All the work to be done has been explained to me and when I have had questions these have been answered promptly and satisfactorily so that I understand every step of the way. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone wanting to undergo surgery and definitely to those who have issues with dentists.read more
Excellent service and care. The best dentist I have ever had.
Sunil and DentalKind have been an excellent choice as my dentist. I researched a number of private dentists in the area before choosing these guys, and I was a little apprehensive as I had never... previously used a private only dentist and I was worried about the costs involved.I have to say that from the very beginning, Sunil and the team never made me feel that they put their commercial interests in front of what was right for me and my desired outcome. There were points during my treatment where I was even recommended to possibly see a NHS dentist if it worked out more viable for me. I always felt like everyone from the dentist, the dental nurse and admin team went the extra mile to ensure service was excellent. I am super pleased with the outcome and intend to go back and use their services again soon. As the saying goes, you pay for what you get.read more
Great service from start to finish, had so many other Dentists say "my issue couldn't be fixed" until I went to see Dr Sunil. Had a really good consultation and then the actual treatment was... fantastic, I was made to feel at ease and felt comfortable throughout. I'm so happy with the result. Thank you DentalKind and Dr Sunil.read more
The Doctor was very friendly and helpful.
I was rigid with fear at the thought of a wisdom tooth extraction, 2 large replacement fillings + periodontal treatment.I hadn’t been to a dentist since before the pandemic when my previous dentist... retired and anyhow the injections I used to have never made my visits any easier…I was always terrified.Recommended by my husband, step forward Dr Sunil and his team at Dentalkind and take a HUGE bow.Together with Dr Paschal who kept me sedated throughout the procedure I felt no pain, no discomfort and no stress.The care throughout & afterwards was exemplary, and after a good sleep when I got home I suffered no after-pain whatsoever.Thank-you Dentalkind, from the bottom of my root canals, for the care & professionalism shown to me and for bringing my smile back.read more
I worked with dr Rahul and I have nothing bad to say, from my first consultation he has provided honest and good advice on what it was I was looking for, extremely professional, the best dentist I... have ever been too, customer service is fantastic along with the facility being clean and hygienic.read more
Dr Rahul saw me on an emergency consultation to review a chipped front tooth due to an accident over the weekend which needed to be urgently fixed ahead of a wedding. He was incredibly thorough in... explaining the possible courses of treatment and the process for narrowing down on the exact treatment needed. Dr Rahul and the nurse did an exceptional job in repairing the chipped tooth with composite bonding, so much so my partner couldn't tell which tooth I had chipped in the first place. Excellent staff and service all round and couldn't be more thankful. Would highly recommend!read more
Sunil and the Dental Kind team are simply fantastic. I'm always excited to visit the clinic, they're really friendly and professional. I also have nervous family members who feel absolutely reassured... and calm here! - highly recommend.read more
Honestly I cannot rate this dentist enough, after not going to the dentist for 15 years due to several traumatic dentist experiences from a young age I finally found Dr Sunil at Dental Kind, not only... did Dr Sunil save my teeth, he changed my life, he has cured my dental phobia and i'm already excited for my review in a few weeks, something I never ever thought i'd be saying, he is kind, caring, and such a fantastic dentist, I cannot thank him enough, not only Dr Sunil, but the receptionists as well, especially Tia, i've never felt so cared for and looked after by a dental surgery, there is not enough words to thank you all enough! I plan to stay with this dentist for as long as they will have me!!! I even travel an hour to get to them as its 100% worth it!!!! THANK YOU!read more
I'm a very nervous person once the dentist is said about and have left it yrs to visit one.But if your like me nervous uncomfortable don't like to visit the dentist due to horror storys this is the... one for you.And as always I've not gone to one for yrs.But lately having a tooth giving me alot of problems with pain I was recommended this one.They booked me in next day.Once there I didn't feel as worried or nervous and once in the room I felt alot better than I've felt in the past.A good look at the tooth and they recommended me having 3 out but at no point was I pressured into it.They gave me a price then and there.I chose to have all 3 out (something I would have run from before) but due to there relaxing way of dealing with me and time to think I had them removed.Will be booking another appointment soon to see what can be done about the rest.Honestly if your scared to visit a dentist give this one a go.read more

I can highly recommend Dentalkind in Billericay, Essex if you are thinking of having Invisalign treatment. From the first consultation, I have had everything explained to me, been well looked after,... with great advice and help from the dentist and all the staff, getting appointments when I needed, alterations to treatment to ensure things were going to plan with no hidden/extra costs. The team were always on hand to answer messages and reassure you from the beginning of your journey to the end.

Thanks again!read more
I can’t recommend Sajni at FaceKind by DentalKind enough! Such professionalism and amazing service, from both Sajni and the Front of House Team! Very welcoming and booking was so easy! Sajni was... thorough in her consultation, completely explaining the treatment to me and the outcome. She was more than happy to answer any questions I had and really helped me achieve the desired results. I am so pleased I had my treatments with Sajni at FaceKind/DentalKind, and will definitely be going back in the future. If you’re thinking of booking in, you should go ahead..

I’ve been a client at Dentalkind for about 6 years after a recommendation. Never have I felt so comfortable about going to the dentist! The treatment I have received has been fantastic.

I recently visited the practice and had my teeth cleaned by Chloe the hygienist. She was excellent and made me feel calm and welcome. Truly the best dental practice I’ve ever been to and I will... definitely be going back!read more
Many thanks to Sunil at Dentalkind for seeing me at short notice. Great service, relaxing surroundings and friendly staff.
I have received treatments at Dental Kind for around three years. I first approached them for Invisiline teeth straightening, having very overcrowded teeth which was causing a front tooth to be... pushed out completely! I followed the Invisiline programme and within 9 months my teeth were beautifully straight, leaving me to wonder why I had left it for so many years. They also included a whitening treatment which left me feeling more confident smiling than I ever had before. Dental Kind is a family run but incredibly professional and knowledgeable practice so I felt confident left in their hands throughout the journey. I was so pleased I also used the services of Face Kind for minor cosmetic improvements and was just as impressed. I still visit both Dental and Face Kind for dental and cosmetic services and would recommend their services to all!read more
Absolutely amazing! I couldn't recommend Dental kind enough. Thank you all so much
Sunil and his team at DentalKind are highly professional and friendly. I am very happy with the service I have received over the years both with routine checkups and more complex treatments such as... implants. The approach is personal, caring and the work is of high quality. I have no hesitation in recommending them.read more
I recently changed my dentist to Dental Kind Billericay following recommendations from colleagues to see Sunil. I went for my first dental appointment and now I am having Invisalign - my friend and... family already comment on my teeth and I haven’t finished yet. I also see the hygienist Kerry there regularly too and she has explained everything to me to help keep my teeth healthy. The whole team are brilliant and the service is really personalised and they make you feel relaxed and reassured. They go above and beyond at all times to make everything work for me. They all keep in contact over the phone and email. Kelsey has been fab. I would recommend them to everyone.read more
Dr Sunil is friendly, reassuring and incredibly professional and knowledgeable. On my first appointment when I came for natural teeth whitening, Dr Sunil asked if I suffered with neck pain. I had... been suffering with neck pain for years, and Dr Sunil told me that I had a really tight bite which could mean I clench my jaw in my sleep without me realising. He worked to get me a shield fitted correctly to wear at night and now my neck pain has decreased incredibly! No other dentist had ever picked up on it.So not only do I have beautiful naturally white teeth, I also have less neck pain! Win win!I would highly recommend Dr Sunil and his team as they are all so welcoming and professional.read more
Sunil and the whole team are so welcoming and kind. I first visited after breaking my front tooth, Sunil accommodated me immediately. I have nothing but good words to say about the initial treatment... and the subsequent course of treatment I have received. I am coming to the end of Invisalign treatment which has really straightened my teeth and improved my smile. Sunil and the team have transformed my smile and improved my confidence.If you are nervous about going to the dentist, then Dentalkind is the surgery for you. If I could give ten stars I would!!read more

I have visited other practices previously for consultations, and never took the plunge in having the procedures I wanted, but I had no problem in making the decision to have them done with...

Not at all pushy, and clearly very knowledgeable in her field. I cannot recommend her/ Facekind enough.Thank you!read more

After wanting to try a new dentist, I chose Dental Kind.This was my first time having dental work carried out as supposed to just my usual check ups.I was seen to by Dr Sunil and his assistant... who I cannot praise highly enough. He is patient, willing to answer any questions before carrying out work and takes the time to explain what’s happening.I was a little reluctant previously as I didn’t always feel 100% comfortable sitting in the dental chair, especially when it came to needles. Now, I can quite happily say I look forward visiting my dentist. It was a very pleasant experience. Nothing is rushed and this is what makes Dr Sunil’s surgery unique.In terms of the surgery, it is very clean, very modern and TV’s are installed on the ceiling which is a great distraction.I would have no hesitation in recommending Dental Kind to all my friends and family. This is first class service when it comes to dentistry! You won’t be disappointed.read more
Best dentist I’ve ever been to - won’t go anywhere else now 👏🏽 Sunil and the team are all so friendly and make sure you’re in the best hands possible.

A fantastic dental surgery - I could not recommend Sunil and his staff highly enough, both as a regular patient and when in need of an emergency!
Granddaughter snapped her new tooth in a scooter accident, she's six. She was treated as an emergency and had X-ray and nerve check. We all left happy thanks to the wonderfully kind and gentle... treatment she received. Today she has eagerly returned and had her tooth rebuilt. Honestly the only noise made by her during treatment was laughing! She now cannot wait until she has her next check up. I cannot recommend this dentist more highly. We shall all go there now from now on.read more

A huge thank you to the Dental Kind team and especially Sunil following a gruelling 9 months of work to restore my smile.

The best dental practice in Essex, stellar team!
I had a free consultation with Dental Kind regarding having a brace fitted. At the time, I had little knowledge about the different methods and prices. I only knew that I yearned for straight teeth!... Dr Sunil Chudasama was very patient with me and explained the prices and procedures thoroughly. He answered all of my questions and did not pressure me into making a decision there and then.I had overlapping on my uppers and chose the Six Months Smile treatment.From my initial consultation through to my final appointment, Dr Sunil Chudasama made me feel at ease. You give a lot of trust to your dentist and I was confident throughout that I had made the right decision. Dr Sunil Chudasama is very calming and a perfectionist with his work.I am so pleased with the final result. I used to hide my teeth whilst smiling for photographs but now I am finally proud of my smile!read more
