There are two types of Bridges that can be used as tooth replacement. One is the traditional fixed bridge and the other is bonded bridge. In a fixed bridge, artificial teeth are set between crowns placed over adjoining natural teeth. In bonded bridge, one or more artificial teeth are fastened to metal wings and those metal wings are bonded to the adjoining anchor teeth, forming a bridge.
