>>I had a single tooth on a plate which fitted in my mouth

Well, it would do wouldn't it :o)

My bridge came away from one of the anchor teeth many years ago, possibly due to decay of that tooth.

It wasn't loose as such though, and still did its job okay, just like 'normal' teeth.

Eventually, say 6 years ago, the cement failed on the other anchor tooth.

I had it cemented in again by the toof doctor, but it didn't last long.

You can buy the proper glass ionomer cement on Amazon - I tried that and it lasted longer than when the toof doctor did it.

But that failed eventually, and I'm a tad worried it would fail while I was asleep and choke me :)
