CROWNS AND BRIDGES:
A dental crown or bridge is placed over an existing tooth or teeth that cannot be repaired with a resin composite filling due to a weakened structure, large existing fillings, or teeth that have had root canal treatment done.
Dental crowns and bridges are extremely durable, strong and mimic real teeth because they are made with high quality porcelain layered over Zirconium. Dental crowns and bridges not only help with correcting issues related to chewing, but they also help to improve self esteem and confidence in individuals who are uncomfortable about the appearance of missing teeth.
