Dental Crowns & Bridges
What are Crowns & Bridges?
Crowns and bridges are restorative dental treatments that can help to bring back the normal function and appearance of your smile.
They can fill the spaces left by missing teeth and can also help you maintain your natural facial shape, as well as return your ability to speak and chew properly.
By repairing structural problems such as damaged or missing teeth using a dental crown or bridge, our dentists can change your smile's appearance – and preserve your oral health.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are hollow, artificial teeth that are placed over an entire decayed or damaged tooth to restore its original shape, size, and colour. Dental crowns help strengthen and change the appearance of a broken tooth.
Crowns are strong and can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain and metal. They look and function like natural teeth, and if cared for properly, can last for over 10 years.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a restoration that 'bridges' a gap of missing teeth in your mouth. Made up of one or more artificial teeth, the bridge is affixed to the teeth on either side of the gap to fill the space.
A bridge helps to prevent your other teeth from shifting positions to fill the space, which could lead to more serious dental issues such as gum disease.
