“Bridge” is the jargon term for a fixed dental prosthesis
In a bridge there are at least two teeth fitted with a crown and connected with one or two links.
One or more missing teeth can adversely affect the appearance and functionality of your smile.
Missing teeth can cause a change in occlusion (bite), shifting of the teeth, temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ), speech impediments, an increased risk for periodontal disease and a greater chance of tooth decay.
Dental Bridge – Prosthesis
Dental bridges, like implants and partial dentures, are used to replace missing teeth. There are several types of fixed dental bridges (cannot be removed), including conventional fixed bridges, cantilever bridges and resin-bonded bridges.
