Crowns

A crown restoration is a way to restore root canal treated teeth, fractured or chipped teeth, and those that have been seriously decayed or discolored. Crown restoration enables a failing tooth to function as well as a natural tooth.

The term “bridge” refers to a structure that contains one or more fake teeth. The structure is often anchored in place with one or more crowns on either side of the gap in the mouth. For example, if a person loses several front teeth, due to injury or decay, a doctor may use a bridge to fill in the gap.

A person may not wish to have a gap in their teeth, after having a tooth removed, for example, because they need a tooth in the area for chewing or because of cosmetic concerns.

For some people, a permanent dental implant is an alternative to a bridge. Dental implants are fake teeth that dentists surgically insert into bone in the mouth. For others, dentists recommend implants to help secure a bridge, particularly if many teeth are missing.

Full porcelain crowns are for patients with high aesthetic demands. They are durable and can withstand chips and fractures. By utilizing the most advanced cosmetic techniques, we ensure that the final result will look completely natural.

Full gold crowns are mainly used for back teeth and for patients who grind. Due to gold’s malleability and durability, full gold crowns are less abrasive to other teeth, giving them a good fit and allowing them to last for a long time.

Implant-supported crowns are used to replace missing teeth with an implant capped with a natural-looking, comfortable crown. In contrast to using bridges to replace the missing tooth, implant-supported crowns are placed without altering adjacent teeth.
