Is it possible to get a resin bonded bridge for a premolar?

Question

As a temporary solution until my facial growth has stopped and i can get the implant. I do have a bit of dental bonding on one of the teeth next to the gap, but other than that my teeth and gums are healthy and working. I am congenitally missing that tooth.

Typically a resin bonded bridge known as a "Maryland Bridge" may be done for front teeth, but on premolars and molars it usually is not an option. The back teeth receive more bite force and a resin bonded bridge is prone to dislodging on premolars. A removable flipper is usually the most reliable option to temp a premolar space. A temporary removable flipper is bulkier and is less aesthetic, but it will be the most successful in resisting fracture and damage to the other teeth.
