Maryland Bridge
A Maryland Bridge is a type of bridge and is the simplest and least invasive. It relies on adhesion (stickyness) a metal wing is attached to the new tooth and this metal is stuck to the back of your adjacent tooth.
The advantage is that the adjacent tooth needs only a little tooth removal.
The disadadvantages are this metal wing can become unstuck and sometime the adjacent tooth gets a greyish appearance as the metal can sometimes shine through the tooth.
