What would you think as a dental pro if your own fixed bridge lasted only 2 years and it was not the bridge itself and you had an extraction?

Hmmm: First, as a dental pro, i would have implant retained crowns ; not a fixed bridge. Having said that, we have insufficient information to really make a judgment ; be fair to both the dentist who made the bridge ; you. We are dealing with living tissues and not a tv set. There are so many factors that could lead to problems ; there are no guarantees with dental ; medical care. Get a 2nd dds opinion.

Upset: If you are saying that one of the supporting teeth for a fixed bridge lasted only 2 years after the completion of the bridge, I'd be as upset as you apparently are. Why not discuss it with the dentist who did the work. The dentists I know stand behind their work for a reasonable time.

Need more info: Predicting how long a fix bridge will last is extremely challenging. Many factors affect their lifespan: oral hygiene, materials used, how often you visit the dentist, the technique of the dentist. Research shows that the average longevity of a fix bridge is between 5 and 10 years. It’s convenient to criticize the work of others without to be present at the initial exam and see preliminary x-rays
