Porcelain Fixed Bridges

Your Restorative Dentist

Bridges work in coordination with crowns by connecting two crowns that are on either side of a missing tooth. Once the crowns are put into place, the false tooth can then be cemented into the mouth. Three bridges are available to patients depending on their needs. Traditional bridges entail using a crown on either side of the gap. Cantilever bridges are put to use when only two neighboring teeth need altering. Maryland bonded bridges are constructed out of porcelain and are fused to metal.
