What Are Fixed Bridges?
Dentist Lyons
A fixed bridge is a restorative dental appliance used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth, or pontic, to neighboring natural teeth or dental implants. Unlike removable appliances, fixed bridges are securely placed and remain in the mouth at all times.
Fixed bridges help restore the appearance and function of your smile while preventing neighboring teeth from shifting into the empty space left by missing teeth. They can improve chewing ability, speech, and overall oral health while creating a natural-looking result.
