Crown and Bridge Dental Services
Bridges and crowns are fixed prosthetic devices that are cemented onto existing teeth or implants by your dentist. Crowns are used most commonly to entirely cover or “cap” a damaged tooth or cover an implant. Bridges are commonly used to close a space if you’re missing one or more teeth. They are cemented to your natural teeth or implants surrounding the space where the tooth once stood.
Benefits of BRIDGES & CROWNS
In addition to strengthening a damaged tooth, bridges and crowns can be used to improve the appearance of teeth, and alter the shape, alignment and dental occlusion (bite). Gaps left by missing teeth can cause the remaining teeth to shift, which can result in an incorrect bite or “malocclusion”. Bridges and crowns help prevent this from happening.
