One of basic principles of bridge designing is Ante’s Law, which states the possibility of fabricating a bridge when the proportions are established:

- B. surfaces of clinical crowns of abutment teeth to that of lost teeth.
- C. height of clinical crowns of abutment teeth to the length of root part lost teeth.
- D. periodontal membrane area of the abutment teeth to the length of root part lost teeth.
- E. none of the answers is true.

Ante's rule compares a biological attachment area of the abutment teeth with the same area of the teeth being replaced.
