Bridges

Bridges are used to fill gaps left by missing teeth. These gaps can mean greater strain on the teeth at either side.

A gap can also mean your 'bite' is affected, because the teeth next to the space can lean into the gap and alter the way the upper and lower teeth bite together. This can then lead to food getting packed into the gap, which causes both decay and gum disease.
