Hi,

Thank you for your question.

Yes we can place a veneer on top of the bridges and I am assuming that you have fractured porcelain of a porcelain bonded bridge. We surely can fix this problem but one has to be aware that strength of the cementation of the veneer to the bridge, although very good and strong, it may not be as good an option as replacing the hole bridge. To make a more definitive assessment the case has to be assessed clinically which we would be happy to do it for you.
