A dental bridge can vary in length, material and attachment type.

• Cantilever bridge – this is where a single tooth is replaced using the adjacent tooth as support
• Conventional bridge – this is where a single tooth, or several teeth, are replaced using the support of teeth either side of the gap
• Minimal prep (adhesive or Maryland) bridge – this involves very little, or no, preparation of supporting teeth. The bridge is bonded onto the supporting teeth using a wing (often metal)

Bridges can be made from different materials such as porcelain, metal, Emax or Zirconia. All options have their advantages and disadvantages, and these will be discussed with you by the dentist.
