What is the difference between a "fixed" and "removable" dental bridge?

Ronald Rosenblatt, DDS (General and Cosmetic Dentistry) gives expert video advice on: Why would I want a fixed dental bridge?; Will a dental bridge change the way I speak?; What are the risks associated with a dental bridge? and more...

There are two types of dental bridges. There is a fixed bridge and a removable bridge. The removable dental bridge is by its very nature removable. You take it out, brush your teeth and put it back in. A fixed dental bridge stays in. Sometimes a fixed dental bridge is called a permanent bridge.
