What Are Tooth Bridges?

Traditional Porcelain Tooth Bridges are fixed (non-removable) appliances and are an excellent way to replace missing teeth.

What Are Tooth Bridges?There are several types of bridges. The “traditional bridge” is the most popular type and is usually made of porcelain fused to metal.  Porcelain fixed bridges are most popular because they resemble your natural teeth.  This type of bridge consists of two crowns that go over two anchoring teeth (abutment teeth) and are attached to pontics (artificial teeth), filling the gap created by one or more missing teeth.

When you need to replace a missing tooth, a bridge can be a functional, good-looking solution.
