What materials are used for crowns and bridges?

Crowns and bridges can be made from several different materials, including gold, porcelain, and metal alloys. Each material offers different advantages, depending on your specific needs and preferences. For example, gold is a strong and durable option that can last for many years without requiring any maintenance or repairs. Conversely, porcelain can be customized to match the natural color of your teeth for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

How are crowns and bridges placed?

Crowns are typically placed over a single tooth, while bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth. Our dentist will first reshape the affected teeth by removing some of the enamel and making impressions of your teeth to create custom-made crowns and bridges that fit properly. The new dental restoration is then bonded onto the existing teeth, restoring your smile’s function and aesthetic.

Who is a good candidate for crowns and bridges?

Dental crowns and bridges are commonly needed by people who have experienced significant dental damage, tooth loss, or decay. These dental treatments have the ability to restore the function and appearance of your smile, allowing you to enjoy all your favorite foods and activities without discomfort or self-consciousness.
