Dental bridges, also known as a fixed partial denture, are used to bridge the gap created by multiple missing teeth. A typical dental bridge is created with one or more artificial teeth that are held in place by two dental crowns. The bridge is attached to the surrounding teeth for support and to fill the space with artificial teeth. Dental bridges allow you to restore normal function to your smile after a tooth is removed or lost.

Typically used in restorative dental procedures, dental crowns and bridges work together to restore mouth function. Crowns and bridges are cemented in place permanently. They are used to fix an existing dental issue but can also be used to prevent future issues.
