    Dr. De Vizio of Colgate answered:
    With good oral hygiene, a cantilever dental bridge can be effective for 5 to 10 years and possibly longer. Sometimes bone loss in the jaw or other dental work in your mouth can make the bridge shift position. In that case, the bridge may need repair or replacement.
