Crowns And Bridges
Our ceramic crowns and bridges are designed to both restore and enhance your smile. Whether you have a broken tooth or one that needs to be replaced, each of these custom restorations are designed to provide long-term durability and aesthetics.

WHAT IS A DENTAL CROWN?
A crown is a full-coverage restoration that slips over a damaged or compromised tooth, protecting it from external factors. The “cap” allows you to continue biting, chewing, and smiling as normal. Crowns are frequently used in areas of large decay, following root canal treatment, or on top of dental implants.

WHAT ARE DENTAL BRIDGES?
When you have a missing tooth, dental bridges fill in the open space by “bridging” the gap left behind. Either end of the bridge has a functional crown that’s attached onto a healthy tooth or dental implant.

About The Procedure
Crown and bridge treatments are typically a two-visit process. During your first appointment, ...
... we’ll numb the affected teeth, take an impression, then cover them with a temporary restoration. About two weeks later, your permanent crown or bridge will be ready to cement in place. It’s a relatively straightforward process.
