Can a little material be added to my bridge so that my bite will be even on both sides again?

Q. I just had a new permanent bridge and crown put on the upper left side of my mouth (with tempoarary cement). The problem is that when I bite down, the teeth on the left side don’t touch. It’s like the bridge is a little too shallow. Can a little material be added to the bridge so that my bite will be even on both sides again?,
A. Not really, you should return to the dentist and consider remaking the bridge to support your bite. Rob
