Also known as fixed partial dentures, a bridge is dental restoration used to replace a missing tooth by joining it permanently to adjacent teeth or dental implants. The materials used for the bridges include gold, alloys, and porcelain. Bridges can reduce your risk of gum disease, help correct some bite issues and even improve your speech and appearance.

​

Reasons for a fixed bridge:

​

• Fill space of missing teeth.

• Maintain facial shape.

• Prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position.

• Restore chewing and speaking ability.

• Restore your smile.

• Upgrade from a removable partial denture to a permanent dental appliance.
