Crowns and Bridges

A crown is made of porcelain that is natural looking and is placed on your teeth for various reasons like large decay, root canal treated teeth, weak teeth needing support and for cosmetic purposes. Your tooth will be trimmed and shaped such that there is enough space for the cap/crown. It is matched to your tooth color.

A Dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by taking the support of the teeth that are immediately next to the missing space. It is fixed and can only be removed by a dentist. A bridge is a better option than a denture because there is no plate in your mouth to make you uncomfortable. Bridges have been an option for decades and have allowed patients to continue their normal function of eating, chewing and talking without any difficulty.
