Services
We proudly offer a variety of restorative solutions to get your smile back on track. Whether you’ve just had a root canal or you’ve broken a tooth, crowns can support and protect your natural tooth and eliminate the need for an extraction down the road. Contact our office to learn more about dental crowns!
Crowns serve a variety of purposes and can be great solutions for both cosmetic and restorative dental cases. Crowns can be used to:
- Attach to a dental implant
- Cover a worn-down, discolored, or misshapen tooth
- Hold a dental bridge in place
- Protect a weak tooth and keep it from breaking
- Restore a broken tooth
- Strengthen a tooth after root canal therapy
- Support a tooth with a large filling
The most common materials used for dental crowns are metals, porcelain-fused-to-metals, composite resin, ceramic, and porcelain. Each material has a different price point, longevity, and purpose. At our office, we use ceramic and porcelain crowns. These materials allow us to match the shade of your crown to your other teeth and they are extremely durable. Ceramic and porcelain have a natural, tooth-like finish, so most people won’t even be able to tell that you have one!
Fixed dental bridges are used to protect teeth that have suffered from extensive tooth decay and trauma and to replace missing teeth. They also cover teeth that are misshapen and discolored, which enhances the overall appearance of the smile. Benefits of dental bridges include:
- Restore the appearance of your smile
- Protect weakened or damaged teeth
- Evenly distribute the force of the bite to surrounding teeth
- Help maintain the shape of the face
- Prevent other teeth from drifting out of position
Dental bridges and dental implants are both excellent tooth replacement options, and our team can help you decide which option will work best for your smile. Dental implants are more invasive and more of an investment, but they are durable and last for decades. Dental bridges are more cost-effective, require fewer appointments, and involve very little to no recovery time after they’re placed. If you have questions about either option, we recommend scheduling a consultation with our team.
