Dental Bridge Dentist in Stuart, FL About Dental bridges A dental bridge is a restorative practice that includes a false tooth held in place by teeth abutment on either side of the gap. The false tooth, also known as a pontic, can be made from various materials. For example, gold and composite resin are the two most abundant dental bridges. However, these pontics are also made from porcelain to blend in with your natural teeth aesthetically. The cost of the dental bridge depends on the number of teeth needed and the type of the bridge.
