Crowns and Bridges
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are standard procedures that have been successfully utilized in restorative dentistry for decades. These treatments are designed to provide a customized, natural-looking remedy for teeth that are heavily damaged or decayed. A crown is typically crafted from a strong porcelain material and affixed to the affected tooth with a durable dental resin. The crown covers the entire tooth and works to enhance its strength and appearance. Crowns are often placed on teeth that have had root canal therapy, and they serve as the final touch for dental implant procedures.
Bridges
Bridges differ from crowns because they replace either a single tooth or several missing teeth at once. Our dental bridges are made securely by crowns attached to healthy natural teeth on either side of the missing tooth or teeth. The creation and fitting process of a dental bridge does contain similarities to that of a crown.
