Crowns & Bridges

  • Dental crowns and bridges are custom restorations used to strengthen damaged teeth and replace missing ones.

    • A crown (also called a “cap”) covers a weakened or broken tooth to protect and restore its function and appearance.

    • A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to neighboring teeth or implants.

    Both options are durable, natural-looking, and custom-made to blend seamlessly with your smile.

  • You may benefit from a crown or bridge if you have:

    • A cracked, broken, or worn-down tooth

    • A large filling with not much natural tooth left

    • A missing tooth or gap in your smile

    • A recent root canal (to protect the tooth)

  • Crowns:

    1. We gently reshape the tooth.

    2. An impression or scan is taken.

    3. A custom crown is created (ceramic, zirconia, or porcelain).

    4. The crown is cemented into place.

    Bridges:

    1. The teeth adjacent to the gap are prepared.

    2. A bridge with artificial teeth is custom-made.

    3. It’s securely placed over the neighboring teeth or implants.

    We also offer same-day crowns in some cases with advanced technology (ask us!).

  • Q: Will my crown or bridge look natural?
    A: Absolutely. We match your restoration to your natural tooth shade, shape, and bite for a seamless result.

    Q: Is the procedure painful?
    A: Not at all. The process is done under local anesthesia for your comfort, and we offer gentle techniques to ease any anxiety.

    Q: How long do crowns and bridges last?
    A: With good care, they typically last 10–15 years or longer.

    Q: Can I eat normally with a crown or bridge?
    A: Yes! Once placed, you can eat comfortably and confidently—just avoid chewing on very hard objects like ice.
