A dental bridge is a form of tooth restoration employed to replace any gaps left by missing teeth. They are made from a false tooth, known as a pontic, and crowns that are fused to adjacent teeth. Teeth are strong and durable but can be lost from injury or decay. If you lose a tooth it can have implications on oral health, the ability to speak clearly and eat properly, as well impacting the aesthetics of a smile. We recommend patients replace missing teeth to reduce the risk of oral health diseases and restore mouth functionality.
