Crowns and Bridges
Love Your Smile
Missing or damaged teeth can often be replaced by a crown or a bridge. Dental crowns and bridges are custom-fitted tooth prosthetics. Crowns – also known as caps – are fixed over the surfaces of natural tooth structures or dental implants. Bridges – also known as partials – are used to fill in the gaps left by missing teeth and are anchored in place by the natural teeth or crowns nearest the empty space. Both crowns and bridges are non-removable and must be cemented in place by the dentist. Crowns and bridges restore natural-looking smiles. With proper cleaning and regular dental check-ups, crowns and bridges can last many years, or even a lifetime.
