Chew More Comfortably

Not every tooth needs the same solution. That's why we offer a range of restoration options. Your solution depends on the condition of the tooth and your long-term needs. You can visit us for:

  • Full Crowns - A full crown is ideal when a tooth is too damaged or weakened to support a filling. A crown covers the entire surface of the tooth, restoring strength, stability, and appearance.
  • Partial Crowns - We recommend this option when only part of the tooth needs to be restored. Onlays preserve more of your tooth structure while offering long-lasting support.
  • Bridges - If you're missing one or more teeth in a row, a dental bridge can fill the gap and restore your bite. We can anchor your bridge to neighboring teeth or dental implants (when applicable).

We'll help you choose the one that feels right for your comfort, function, and future care.

Expect Precise Results

We use these technologies to make your restorative care more precise and comfortable:

  • Digital Impressions - Our team uses an intraoral scanner (like iTero) to create detailed models of your teeth. You avoid gooey trays and messy impressions.
  • Intraoral Cameras - These high-definition cameras allow us to show you what we see. You gain a better understanding of your treatment options.
  • Cavity Detection - We use cavity detectors to spot and treat any signs of decay in its earliest stages. This ensures minimally invasive treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Crowns and Bridges

When do I need a dental crown instead of a filling?

A crown is recommended when a tooth is too damaged or weak to hold a filling. This might happen after a large cavity or a fracture. A crown covers the entire tooth, restoring its strength and preventing further breakage. Fillings are best for smaller areas of decay, but once a tooth has lost significant structure, a crown is a safer, longer-lasting solution. We'll always assess your tooth carefully and explain the best option for your specific situation.

What’s the difference between a crown and a bridge?

A crown is used to restore a single tooth that's been damaged or weakened. A bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the healthy teeth on either side of the gap. Both restorations are custom-made to blend naturally with your smile and support your bite. We'll help you understand which is best for your needs, whether you're restoring one tooth or replacing several.

How long do crowns and bridges last?

With proper care, crowns and bridges can last 10 years or longer. Their longevity depends on factors like oral hygiene, bite alignment, and whether you grind your teeth. During your routine exams, we'll monitor your restorations to ensure they remain secure and in good condition. If anything needs repair or replacement over time, we'll guide you through your options with honesty and care.
