Dental Crowns and Bridges: Reinforcing and Completing Your Smile

When a tooth is severely damaged or missing entirely, it compromises the strength and alignment of your whole bite. Dental crowns and bridges are time-tested, durable solutions designed to restore the structural integrity of your mouth. A crown protects and strengthens a weakened tooth, while a bridge fills the gap left by a missing tooth. Our restorations are custom-engineered to match the exact shape and shade of your natural teeth, ensuring your smile feels strong and looks flawless.

The Core Benefits of Crowns & Bridges

Restores Tooth Strength

A crown acts as a protective “cap,” preventing a cracked or heavily decayed tooth from fracturing further.

Prevents Teeth Shifting

Bridges fill the empty spaces left by missing teeth, preventing surrounding teeth from drifting out of alignment.

Seamless Natural Appearance

We use high-grade porcelain and ceramics that mimic the translucency of natural enamel for an invisible blend.

Long-Term Functional Support

Designed to withstand the pressure of everyday chewing, these restorations return your mouth to full functionality.

Why Choose Us for Your Restoration?

Metal-Free Ceramics: We specialize in E-Max and Zirconia restorations, which offer superior strength without the dark metal line often seen at the gum line with older crowns.
Digital Impression Accuracy: We use 3D intraoral scanners to capture a perfect "map" of your bite, ensuring your new crown or bridge fits comfortably and doesn't require constant adjustment.
Custom Shade Matching: Our team uses professional lighting and color-matching technology to ensure your restoration is indistinguishable from your neighboring teeth.
Minimally Invasive Preparation: We focus on preserving as much of your natural tooth structure as possible while still ensuring a secure and lasting bond.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a crown and a bridge?
A crown covers a single damaged tooth to protect it. A bridge is a single appliance used to replace one or more
How long does the process take?
Typically, the process takes two visits. The first is to prepare the tooth and take impressions, and the second is to permanently bond your custom-crafted restoration.
Does it hurt to get a crown?
No. We ensure the area is completely numbed with local anesthesia. You may feel some mild pressure during the procedure, but it is generally a very comfortable experience.
How long will my crown or bridge last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, a high-quality crown or bridge can last 10 to 15 years or even longer.
How do I care for a dental bridge?
You brush it just like your natural teeth, but you will need to use a special type of floss (a floss threader) to clean underneath the artificial tooth to keep your gums healthy.
