A member asked:
Please explain if it is possible that teeth can decay under teeth bridgework?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Anywhere the restorations meet natural tooth structure is the area where decay can occur. Your hygiene is critical along with visits to your doctor. If all done properly long term predictable success is assured. Be well.
