Fixed Bridge
With the loss of one or more teeth, there may be more at stake than just your smile. Missing teeth may not only lower confidence, but they can also contribute to other dental problems. If missing teeth are not replaced, remaining teeth shift, and bone loss may occur. With so many options for patients with missing teeth, there's no reason to opt to just live with the gaps.
A fixed bridge (non-removable) can be an ideal option for replacing missing teeth. A fixed bridge looks great, and literally bridges the gap where one or more teeth are missing. A fixed bridge, usually made of porcelain (with gold underneath,) is permanently placed between two healthy teeth. The bridge is held in place by porcelain crowns. A fixed bridge can help put a stop to the domino effect of the many problems associated with missing teeth.
