Question:
Dental bridge, can I add a plate temporarily?
I have a 4 tooth bridge that is loosing isn't supports. It won't stay. Does any one know if a plate could be just added to it, so I won't have to replace it right now with a six tooth bridge? I can't afford it now.
Answers:
HELLO,
THE ABUTMENT WHICH IS LOOSE MAY BE DOUBLE ABUTTED AT THE LOOSE END WHERE AN ADDITIONAL CROWN CAN BE SOLDERED TO THE EXISTING BRIDGE, ASSUMING THERE IS AN ADJACENT TOOTH THERE. THE BONDING CEMENT CAN ALSO BE SPECIALIZED. A 4-META CEMENT WHICH IS CONSIDERABLY STRONGER THAN TRADITIONAL CEMENTS COULD BE UTILIZED. THE COMPANIES WHICH MANUFACTURE THESE SPECIAL CEMENTS ARE PARKELL AND J. MORITA.
