Crown and Bridges

Are you embarrassed by tooth decay, cracked or broken teeth? Are missing or damaged teeth causing you to hide your smile? If your answer is YES, then don’t hide it any longer. Get your beautiful smile back with dental crown or dental bridge…!

Dental crown and bridges replace missing teeth and repair damaged teeth. Often made of tooth colored porcelain, most dental crowns and bridges look like your natural teeth so no one will ever know the difference.

Dental crowns or bridges can improve your smile by:

• Covering a dental implant or replacing missing teeth
• Filling spaces and unsightly gaps between your teeth
• Repairing chips and cracks in your teeth
• Covering a poorly shaped or discolored tooth
• Covering a tooth that has had a root canal.

When Do You Need a Dental Bridge?

Tooth loss not only affects how your smile looks, but also the way you eat, how you speak and the alignment of your other teeth. Apart from dentures, a dental bridge is one of the few options available for replacing a missing tooth. A dental bridge literally helps to restore your smile by bridging the gap between missing teeth. It works by attaching the natural looking restorative teeth on both sides of the gap.

There are two main types of bridges:

• Traditional bridges: These are made of either ceramics or fused-to-metal and are regarded as the most common type of bridges.
• Cantilever bridges: these bridges are used when there are adjacent teeth on only side of the missing tooth or teeth.
