ABSTRACT:
A dental bridge is described consisting of at least one pontic and a small support bar. The pontic has a masio-distally oriented slot therethrough dimensioned to receive the bar. The bar is intended to be mounted in abutment teeth in a dental preparation also dimensioned to correspond to the cross sectional configuration of the bar. A plurality of pontics are provided so that a pontic most closely resembling the shape and shade of the lost tooth can be used, and the dentist can select the pontic and construct the bridge therefrom.
