Bridge (fixed partial denture)

A bridge, also known as a fixed partial denture, is a dental restoration used to replace a missing tooth by permanently joining to adjacent teeth or dental implants.
A bridge is fabricated by reducing the teeth on either side of the missing tooth or teeth. The adabtability and esthetics vary greatly with the different materials used (metal and ceramic, etc.). As a heavy burden is imposed on the abutment teeth that support the restoration, some considerations are requried to ensure the excellent long-term prognosis.
