Crowns and Bridges

Crowns and bridges offer a solution to missing teeth. Cost depends upon the quality of the skill of the dentist in preparing and fitting the work , the quality of the dental laboratory used and the quality of materials used to manufacture the unit.

Crowns

Crowns are caps made to fit over an existing tooth. They are often recommended following a root canal filling to protect the remaining tooth whose strength is often compromised by the extensive decay and infection that may have been present.

Bridges

Bridges are units of false teeth that are fixed to remaining natural teeth to fill a gap. A bridge may take the place of one or more missing teeth and the results can be excellent with good function and aesthetic results. With careful maintenance a well-made bridge can last many years. The bone in the jaw surrounding the missing tooth or teeth can continue to recede.
