Removal of bridge without damaging. Any suggestions?

bridgeless
During a root canal, the dentist loosened my bridge. He says it has to be removed and re-cemented. As I do not want a new bridge he is having me remove by eating taffy and all sorts of sticky candy to try and remove the bridge gently. It has been several weeks now, and while it is indeed looser, it is in no way ready to come out. Any suggestions?
