Rejuvenate Your Smile With A Crown & Bridge

When it comes to repairing or restoring or repairing your teeth, dental crowns and dental bridges can provide incredibly natural-looking, durable, and long-lasting solutions.

What is a dental crown?

If you have a significantly damaged tooth, a dental crown can help restore it. A custom-made cap created with porcelain or ceramic materials, it fits over a damaged tooth and helps protect it from further damage while also improving its appearance.

In addition, crowns are often used to restore a tooth's function and appearance following a root canal procedure, to attach a dental bridge, cap a dental implant, and to protect a weak tooth from fracturing. A crown may be needed when there isn't enough tooth remaining to hold a filling in place.

What is a dental bridge?

If you’ve lost one or more teeth, a dental bridge can help fill the gap(s). Comprised of two porcelain crowns with one or more false teeth in between, the crowns are placed over healthy teeth on either side of the gap(s), and the false tooth (or teeth) are attached to them.

Not only does this restorative prosthetic help improve the appearance of your smile, it also makes it easier to eat and speak, and also stops nearby teeth from shifting into the gap over time. Bridges are cemented into place and can't be taken out like partial dentures.
