The tooth that was holding my bridge has broken

Q. I had a bridge with 4 teeth they were holding on by one bad tooth which has now broken leaving me with no teeth in the front,i have a phobia with dentists i always have sedation but what can be done urgently for me,as i cant eat properly.Thers nowhere for the bridge to be fitted back as its just gums.thanks 

A. Hi You might need a temporary denture made while you decide on the long term replacement of the front teeth. This can be made quickly with just impressions so would be a good temporary solution.

Good luck  Andrew
