Crowns & Bridges: Restore Strength, Function, and a Natural Look
Crowns are custom-made restorations designed to strengthen damaged teeth or improve their shape. They’re ideal for teeth that are broken, worn down, or weakened by decay. A crown is placed over your existing tooth—fully covering the part above the gum line—and becomes the new, durable outer surface of the tooth. Crafted from porcelain, gold, or a combination of materials, each crown is precisely made from your unique tooth impression to ensure proper bite and jaw alignment.
Bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth, literally “bridging” the gap with artificial teeth. Like crowns, bridges can be made from porcelain, gold, or both, and are supported by the surrounding healthy teeth. A strong foundation is key to the success of your bridge, which is why maintaining healthy gums, teeth, and jawbone with regular cleanings and good oral hygiene is essential.
