Yes a tooth can become infected under a bridge. Depending on the diagnoses or type of infection of the tooth (if it’s cavity under the bridge or if the root of the tooth is infected) the bridge is usually removed and the tooth/teeth under the bridge can be visualized and assessed more clearly. When the condition of the tooth/teeth have been diagnosed, treatment options can be determined. Once your dentist has determined the cause of infection, they can discuss the treatment options in order to treat the infection.
