Dental bridges can be fabricated from several different materials. The most suitable material depends on the location of the missing tooth, biting forces, aesthetic requirements, supporting teeth, and clinical condition.
Common dental bridge materials include:
- Zirconia – strong, metal-free, and highly aesthetic.
- Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) – combines a metal framework with tooth-coloured porcelain.
- Full Metal – provides excellent strength and durability and may be suitable for selected posterior cases.
The metal framework of a PFM bridge can also be manufactured using different technologies, including CAD-CAM and DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering).
At Dr. Bharat Katarmal Dental & Implant Clinic, Jamnagar, the bridge material is selected according to the patient's clinical requirements rather than using one material for every case.
