Bridges
Whether you have lost a tooth through an accident or if it has been extracted, bridges can fill in gaps in your smile. Made either from porcelain fused to a metal base or from all-ceramic, bridges work by using the teeth on either side of the gap. These teeth, known as the abutment teeth, support the replacement tooth which is fixed between two crowns. These crowns slot over the abutment teeth with the false tooth acting as a bridge between them.
