Asked By:Dreams83 in Annapolis, MD

I had a six unit bridge done 4 yrs ago and I've hated how big and bulky they look. I especially feel very insecure about smiling since the top of the left front tooth has no gum tissue around it due to missing tooth and bone loss in that area. The bridge is missing that natural fit. What can be done for me to achieve a more Natural looking teeth with gum tissue around the bridge?
