A dental bridge can replace a tooth or several teeth. The fake teeth in dental bridges look and function like real teeth.
One option is to have a crown — the exterior portion of a tooth to re-establish its original function and to create a natural appearance
When a person has lost a tooth or the dentist has had to remove it, a dental bridge may be the best choice.
The term “bridge” refers to a structure that contains one or more fake teeth.
If a person loses several front teeth, a doctor may use a bridge to fill in the gap.
A person may not wish to have a gap in their teeth, because for example they need a tooth in the area for chewing or because of cosmetic concerns.
For some people, a permanent dental implant is an alternative to a bridge.
