A dental bridge is made with two or more dental crowns on either side of a gap made by a missing tooth, with an artificial tooth (or teeth) placed in between. These type of artificial teeth are called “pontics”, and they can be made of different materials such as alloys, porcelain, gold, or a combination of them. The purpose of a dental bridge is just what its name implies, to bridge the gap created by a missing tooth or teeth. The bridge is supported by natural teeth or in some instances implants.
