fixed bridge
One of the methods that a person can choose due to the loss of a permanent tooth is the use of a fixed bridge. In fixed bridges, artificial prostheses are used to compensate for missing teeth. This prosthesis is permanently placed on the empty space of the tooth. This method is very useful for people who have lost one or two teeth.
When using a fixed bridge, the teeth adjacent to the empty space must be healthy and strong because these teeth are used as a support for the fixed bridge.. In fact, the fixed bridge is made of ceramic in the form of a complete tooth and two veneers that are stretched over the adjacent teeth. Some may use precious metals such as gold and silver as bridges, but nowadays people prefer to use prostheses of the same color as their teeth, which are more beautiful.. Although this method is full of advantages, it has disadvantages compared to implants, which are mentioned below:
- Using adjacent teeth as a support can endanger the health of healthy teeth.
- Adjacent teeth must be ground to a great extent, which destroys healthy tooth enamel.
- Putting too much pressure on the adjacent teeth.
- Lack of stimulation of the jaw bone by the bridge and eventually bone loss in this area.
- Needs constant care and oral hygiene.
- It is irreparable, and in case of damage, the spell must be replaced, which costs a lot.

Partial or partial denture
It is one of the types of removable dental prostheses, which fills the empty spaces of the teeth by relying on the adjacent teeth. In fact, this prosthesis rests on the healthy teeth adjacent to the empty tooth space. The support of this prosthesis is the hooks that are connected to the side teeth. One of the advantages of this type of artificial tooth is the possibility of removing it by a person. Partial or partial artificial teeth are often made of acrylic and sometimes cobalt and chrome are used in its combination for more strength.. In cases where a person wants more flexibility of artificial teeth, the nylon type can be used.
