Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth, restoring both function and aesthetics. Using titanium posts fused to the jawbone, they support crowns, bridges, or dentures. Ideal for patients seeking stability without affecting adjacent teeth, implants prevent bone loss and mimic natural tooth structure. Our team ensures precise placement through advanced imaging and tailored treatment planning.
Braces/Invisalign
We offer traditional braces and Invisalign clear aligners to correct misalignment and bite issues. Braces address complex cases with metal or ceramic brackets, while Invisalign provides discreet, removable trays. Both options improve oral health by reducing gaps and overcrowding. Treatment duration varies from 9 months to 2 years, with regular adjustments ensuring optimal results.
Children's Dentistry
Specialised dental care for children focuses on early intervention and preventive strategies. Services include check-ups, fluoride treatments, fissure sealants, and orthodontic assessments. Our team creates a welcoming environment to build trust and establish lifelong oral hygiene habits. Early treatment addresses thumb-sucking, teeth grinding, and developmental concerns.
Crowns and Bridges
Crowns restore damaged teeth with durable caps, while bridges fill gaps using adjacent teeth for support. Both options improve chewing function and prevent further dental issues. Custom-made from porcelain or ceramic, they blend naturally with existing teeth. The process involves two visits for preparation, impressions, and fitting.
Dentures
Full or partial dentures replace missing teeth, enhancing speech and chewing ability. Constructed from acrylic or cobalt chrome, they are tailored to fit comfortably. Immediate dentures allow same-day placement after extractions, while conventional options require healing time. Adjustments ensure long-term comfort and stability.

I've been going to Pretoria Bridge Dental since I was a kid and the experience has always been extremely pleasant. I've seen different staff throughout the years but they have always been amazing. Even after moving further away, I would still come back for the wonderful service. Highly recommend.

The culture in this dental office is wonderful. The receptionists are friendly as well as the hygienists and dentists who are also professionally skilled. I used to feel anxious about dental work before coming to Pretoria Bridge Dental.

The best dental clinic that I know of. Dr. Hoeschen gave me 8 veneers and they look fantastic! I am always recieving compliments about them and I no longer try to hide my smile. The procedure was done very professionally and I was comfortable the entire time over multiple appointments. He and Aline are an amazing team that will deliver exceptional care. The whole office is an exceptional team. It really shows that he has a passion for dentistry and has pursued advanced dentistry to the best level possible. I myself am a dentist and he is one of the only dentists I would trust with my teeth!
