Bridges


Bridges are one of the alternatives for replacing missing teeth. In the front of the mouth these are generally made from porcelain fused to metal (PFM) or all porcelain. When replacing back teeth we have the additional choice of using gold and the restoring material.


Generally bridges are used when one or two adjacent teeth are lost. Longer spans are more usually restored with either implants or partial dentures.
