Dental Crowns and Bridges
|
A porcelain dental crown or bridge is a beautiful color-matched, durable, and complete restoration designed to protect the integrity of compromised teeth. A crown repairs an existing tooth, and a bridge replaces missing teeth.
By anchoring itself to adjacent teeth, a bridge can replace missing teeth and reestablish a solid chewing surface. Crowns and bridges are sculpted for an ideal fit and maximum visual appeal. During your first visit, the supporting teeth are sculpting to maximize the aesthetics of the final crown or bridge. You will leave this visit with a temporary crown or bridge. At your second visit, our dentists will bond the permanent crown or bridge for a lasting effect. Usually only two visits are needed. |

Use of Porcelain
|
All-ceramic or all-porcelain dental crowns and bridges can provide a better natural color match than any other material and may be more suitable for people with metal allergies.
