Without RCT also a bridge can be fabricated but there is a chance of failure of the bridge as the tooth becomes weak . Moreover, flossing is required so as to keep the hygiene maintained around the bridge. A bridge can replace more than one tooth at a time very easily but it’s a little costly then the dentures.
