Creating Smiles that last a Life Time
Natural-Looking Crowns and Bridges
Prosthodontists have the specialty training necessary to deliver the best result possible with crown and bridge treatment.
Dental Crowns
If you have ever looked at a person and noticed that they have a crown or cap on one of their teeth - it is not a good crown! A crown should be a beautiful tooth restoration that matches your natural teeth. The effort of the dentist and technician to make a beautiful crown directly affects the result. A prosthodontist is specially trained to provide the best possible crown available.
Crowns can be used for a variety of reasons:
-
Protect weak teeth from further damage
-
Restore a broken tooth
-
Cover a tooth that has a large filling
-
Hold a dental bridge in place
-
Replace a missing tooth with a dental implant
Dental Bridges
Bridges are natural-looking tooth replacements that help maintain facial structure, reduce stress on the jaw and fill in the gaps caused by missing teeth. Fixed bridges are cemented to the existing teeth and do not come out.
A bridge can be used to:
-
Replace a missing tooth
-
Restore your ability to bite and chew
-
Improve your speech
-
Prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position.
