Traditional Dental Bridges

Traditional dental bridges involve utilizing a crown that is placed on top of the teeth adjacent to the missing tooth on either side. These two crowns then provide the support to the false tooth that is placed in between. This is the most common dental bridge and it can be utilized when you still have natural teeth surrounding the missing tooth. It is also more-or-less easy to implement since it does not require surgery.
