Crown & Bridge
Fixed restorations that can protect a damaged tooth or replace a missing tooth.
Crowns cover and protect a tooth, while bridges replace one or more missing teeth by connecting to supporting teeth or implants. The dentist reviews your oral health and discusses available options.
Restoring strength and function
A crown may be used to restore the shape and function of a tooth that needs more coverage than a filling can provide. A bridge may replace a gap using adjacent teeth or implants for support.
The material, design and suitability depend on the tooth, bite and overall oral health. Your dentist will explain the trade-offs before you decide.
From assessment to fitting
The process begins with an examination and treatment plan. Measurements are used to design a restoration that fits your mouth and bite.
Your dentist will explain the expected appointments, care at home and any alternatives that may be suitable for you.
Treatment suitability, steps and outcomes vary. The dentist will assess your needs and explain options before care begins.
