What is a Tooth Bridge?

As the name implies, a tooth bridge is a dental appliance used when teeth are missing. It is made up of two or more crowns that are anchored onto the remaining natural teeth on either side of the gap. The artificial teeth are attached to the crowns and fill in the missing spaces.

Who Might Need a Tooth Bridge?

A tooth bridge is a viable option for anyone who has one or more missing teeth. Whether the gap is from an injury, decay, or gum disease, a tooth bridge can restore the function and appearance of your teeth.
