I am suffering with chewing problem in my left upper jaw. 2 years back I got a bridge for my last 4 teeth ie. 2 premolars and 2 molars. The doctor removed one premolar and 1 molar and put the bridge. The bridge is fine but the food gets stuck whenever I try to eat. And it is very difficult to chew on the left side. It does not pain. And on right side I have filling done on my molar so I am not able to eat on that side cause my doctor told maybe I have to do root canal for the right side teeth so suggest some help. When bridge was made there was a gap above the bridge the food used to get stuck. But nowadays t he food is getting stuck on the bottom (side) of the bridge. It is not a huge problem but it causes difficulty in eating.
