A study was made of 351 bridges which were fabricated for patients at the Prosthodontic Clinic of Matsumoto Dental College during 1984. Some of the results were as follows: 1) 46.15% of the patients were males and 53.85% were females. 2) 91.74% of the patients were between 20 and 59 years old. 3) 76.64% of the bridge were fabricated as 3-unit bridges; and 4) 90.31% were fabricated as 1-pontic bridges. 5) There were fewer bridge retainers for the lower anterior segment than for other segments. 6) 62.20% of bridge retainers were fabricated as full cast crowns; and 7) 49.06% were fabricated for vital teeth. 8) Of pontics, 32.73% were replaced for the lower molar segment. 9) Compared with a similar study in 1983, the number of bridges decreased by 21.
