| Dental bridges are used to replace
missing teeth by bridging a gap in between two remaining
teeth. There are different types of bridges:
The traditional bridges – called
fixed bridges consist of a false tooth with a dental
crown on either side.
Resin bonded bridge – The pontic
tooth is fixed to a metal wing. This metal wing is
bonded to the back of the remaining teeth with a strong
adhesive cement.
Cantilever Bridge – Ususally
this type of bridge is only recommended when there
are only teeth on one side of the missing teeth. These
bridges consist of two corwns together with a false
tooth attatched to fill the space.
