ABSTRACT:
An integrally formed prefabricated dental bridge which allows complete fitting and attachment during one visit to a dentist. The bridge includes a vertically-oriented pontic element, and a pair of horizontally-extending bars disposed in line with each other on opposite sides of the pontic element. The biting surfaces of the two teeth adjacent the missing tooth have grooves formed in them for seating respective ones of the two horizontally-extending bars. The pontic element is then shaped by grinding to have the appearance of a natural looking tooth, and the two bars are covered by filling material applied to the grooves of the adjacent teeth.
