Treatment Process:
The old and deteriorating bridge was removed, which likely required careful and skilled dental work.
A new bridge was crafted to replace the old one. This process may have involved taking impressions, selecting appropriate materials, and creating a bridge that not only restored function but also enhanced aesthetics.
