Q. Hi I have recently suffered a fracture to my upper right canine which had a cantilever bridge attached with a pontic for the lateral incisor. I have the same arrangement on the left upper side and two veneers on my central incisors. This is because I never got my permanent lateral incisors. My dentist says the only option for me is a denture or implants. I really don’t want to go back to having a denture but I don’t think I can afford implants. Would it not be possible to have another type of bridge using my front incisor and the canine for support? As What other options could I have? thanks
A. This is a possibility but you need to be properly assessed
