Question:
Loosened dental bridge: I slipped on ice and hit my jaw on the pavement.

On checking my dental bridge I feel very slight movement in my dental bridge.

It is a rather large bridge replacing about 13 teeth. Could it be carefully removed and recemented? ... Visitor from NY

Answer:
Yes, it is possible, under certain conditions.

In view of the trauma involved, whether or not it is a cementation issue "only" will have to be determined by your dentist.
