A study was made of 210 bridges which were fabricated for patients at the prosthodontic Clinic of Matsumoto Dental College during 1986. Some of the results were as follows: 1) 86.67% of the patients were between 20 and 59 years old. 2) 50.95% of the patients were males and 49.05% were females. 3) 73.33% of the bridges were fabricated as 3-unit bridges. 4) 84.29% were fabricated as 1-pontic bridges. 5) There were fewer bridge retainers for the lower anterior segment than for other segments. 6) 53.70% were fabricated for vital teeth. 7) 44.24% of bridge retainers were fabricated as full cast crowns. 8) Of pontics, 31.85% were replaced for the lower molar segment. 9) Compared with a similar study in 1985, the number of bridges decreased by 50.
