Encore Bridge

If your patients are looking for a bridge option that is more aesthetic than a full bridge, and less expensive, then the Encore bridge is the most effective choice.

The end result is similar to a Maryland Bridge, but it is entirely made of tooth-colored material and esthetically mimicks the organic tooth color in the mouth. This restoration can be used if the teeth on either side of the missing tooth do not have crowns or other large restorations. Besides being very esthetic, it does not require the dentist to grind down the adjacent teeth.

The absence of any metal framework makes it aesthetically pleasing yet this option has its disadvantages – the technique is very demanding, and there is the possibility of the bridge debonding due to the fact that its not quite as solid as a conventional porcelain-to-metal dental bridge.
