Fixed Bridges

A fixed, or “permanent,” bridge replaces one or more teeth by placing crowns on the teeth on either side of the space and attaching artificial teeth to them. The bridge is then cemented into place. In addition to filling in the space left by missing teeth, the fixed bridge also helps prevent other teeth from shifting position in the mouth.

A precision partial denture is removable and has internal attachments rather than clasps that attach to the adjacent crowns. This is a more natural-looking appliance.

During the crown procedure, your dentist prepares the tooth and makes a molded impression of the teeth to send to a dental laboratory. A fitted, temporary crown is created during this visit to temporarily protect the tooth while the permanent crown or bridge is being made in the dental laboratory. Once completed, the crown is cemented or adhesively bonded at a later visit.
