Dental bridge

A dental appliance of false teeth that is attached to natural teeth on either side. A fixed bridge is attached to the teeth that have been filed down in order to be fitted with crowns. Fixed dental bridges are more commonly used than removable, partial denture bridges, except in cases in which there are several adjacent teeth missing or the span of empty space is relatively wide. Unlike partial dentures, fixed dental bridges cannot be taken out by the person wearing them.


False teeth that are secured to adjacent natural teeth, filling the space left by one or more missing teeth, are referred to as dental bridges. In certain cases, adhesive bridges are now available as an option. These bridges are attached to the teeth on either side of the gap, providing a stable and functional solution without causing damage to the supporting teeth.
