If a bridge becomes loose, it may be possible to remove and re-cement it. Fixed dental bridges are meant to stay in place for 5 to 15 years, so removing a dental bridge may cause irreparable damage to the pontics and Dr. Mischissin may recommend a new appliance.
If you damage your bridge, contact our office right away so we can remedy the situation. You’ll want to avoid trying to fix the bridge on your own, as this typically causes more problems and can damage your teeth and surrounding structures.
