PFM Restoration — 02 / 03
PFM bridges
A rigid metal framework with layered porcelain, replacing one or more missing teeth.
What it is
PFM bridges combine a strong metal framework with layered porcelain to replace one or more missing teeth while restoring function, occlusion and aesthetics. The metal substructure provides the rigidity and support required for the bridge, while the porcelain veneering is customised to reproduce natural tooth shade, anatomy and surface characteristics. PFM bridges offer a reliable solution for both anterior and posterior tooth replacement, providing durability and functional stability with a natural-looking appearance.
Where it is used
- Replacement of one or more missing teeth using fixed bridges
- Anterior and posterior bridges requiring a strong supporting framework
- Short-span and selected long-span cases requiring structural stability
- Cases where functional durability and aesthetics are both required
- Patients requiring a well-established fixed restorative solution
