Qu’est-ce qu’un pont fixe?

What is a fixed bridge?

A bridge is a fixed dental prosthesis that replaces one or more missing teeth. It consists of a set of at least three rings welded together. One or more artificial teeth rest on adjacent natural teeth or on two implants. The teeth or implants on each side serve as pillars for the bridge. The average duration of a bridge is 10 years.

The main disadvantage of a bridge is that it alters the healthy teeth adjacent to the artificial tooth. Failure of a part of the bridge can result in the loss of a healthy abutment tooth, as can the loss or erosion of the bridge cement.

Sometimes, a dental implant and a crown, although generally more expensive, are a better long-term solution and over the years prevent bone resorption in your mouth.

The butterfly bridge

The butterfly bridge

This type of bridge is made of an artificial tooth with two metal fins (butterfly wings), which will be permanently glued to the teeth adjacent to the one to be replaced. The main advantage is that the butterfly bridge is less likely to damage neighbouring teeth than the traditional bridge, which requires the milling of adjacent healthy teeth.
