Tooth-colored bridges used to be made only of porcelain and metal. But with the new technology available today, they can be made entirely of porcelain.

To have enough strength to withstand biting forces, porcelain bridges used to be built upon a metal core. Unfortunately, this created a noticeable dark line at the edge of the bridge.

New breakthroughs in adhesives and stronger porcelain materials now make it possible to create bridges entirely from porcelain. All-porcelain bridges maintain a translucency that makes them difficult to tell from real teeth.

Without metal, the dark line at the edge of the gums is eliminated. This allows the edge of the bridge to be placed above the gum line, which is healthier for your teeth and gums.

When you want to improve your smile, an all-porcelain bridge is an excellent choice!
