bridges

Bridges are natural-looking dental appliances that can replace one or more missing teeth. Because they are custom-made, bridges are barely noticeable and restore the natural contour of teeth as well as the proper bite relationship between upper and lower teeth.

Porcelain, gold alloys, or combinations of materials are usually used to make bridge appliances.

Bridges are sometimes referred to as fixed partial dentures because they are semi-permanent and are bonded to existing teeth.

There are several types of fixed dental bridges. Unlike a removable bridge (also known as a partial denture), which you can take out and clean, only your dentist can remove a fixed bridge.
