Description
A Dental Bridge is a fixed dental restoration which is used to replace a missing tooth (or several teeth) by joining an artificial tooth permanently to adjacent teeth or dental implants. A Dental Bridge is made of two crowns for the teeth on both side of the gap - these two anchoring teeth are called abutment teeth.
If you seek an alternative, Dental Implants can be another option to replace the missing tooth/teeth.

Process
Similar to crown, the tooth is trimmed to accommodate the bridge. Moulds will be taken of the teeth along with your tooth shade, to work on a custom-made bridge, which will be fabricated in the laboratory. After the bridge is ready, it is positioned over the tooth and cemented in place.
Type or Option

A Traditional Bridge involve creating a crown for the tooth or implant on either side of the missing tooth, with a pontic in between. Traditional Bridges are the most common type of bridges and made of either porcelain-fused metal or ceramics.

A Cantilever Bridge is used when there are adjacent teeth on only one side of the missing tooth or teeth.

A Maryland Bonded Bridge (also called a resin-bonded bridge) are made of porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or plastic teeth and gums supported by a metal or porcelain framework. Metal or porcelain wings on each side of the bridge are bonded to your existing teeth.
