Abstract
A system of modular components for making dental restorative bridges, and a new method of making dental restorative bridges, using bars and fittings for fixing them between abutments, and prefabricated modules which provided pontic incisal and occlusal portions in a wide variety of shapes, shades, sizes and constructions. These modules are on substructures which are precision fitted to the bars. The soft-tissue oriented portion of each pontic is affixed to the gingival aspects of the bar and the module, after occlusal adjustment of the module has been made.
