Bridges FAQ Ask The Dentist James Sanderson

Question:
I have a bridge to replace my two front teeth. One of the porcelain teeth fell off the bridge and my dentist has attempted to repair this a number of times but the repair only lasts between 6 months to a year.

Is there a better way of repairing this which I could mention to the dentist? Visitor from Belfast, Ireland UK

Answer:
There is a better way and that is to probably replace the existing bridge.

I wish it could be easier but that is really the best way to handle it. You can attempt to place some composite material there but it may not stay.
