If cracked, chipped, or missing teeth are keeping you from smiling wide and inhibiting your function to eat and chew, we are here for you! Crowns and bridges offer long-term, natural-looking restoration of function and will have you feeling confident to smile.
What is a Crown?
A crown is the name for a dental cap. It is a sophisticated type of dental restoration that completely caps or encircles a tooth or dental implant. A crown may be needed when a large dental cavity threatens the health of a tooth. A crown is typically bonded to the tooth by dental cement.
What is a Bridge?
A bridge is a small oral appliance used to cover spaces of one or more missing teeth. Using the surrounding teeth as anchors, a bridge is made up of abutment crowns to rest atop the anchor teeth, as well as pontic teeth to restore missing space.
