CROWNS & BRIDGES

Crown and bridges are fixed prosthetic devices that are surfaced onto existing teeth or  implants. Crowns are used most generally to entirely cover or “cap” a damaged tooth or  cover an implant. Bridges are commonly used to cover a space if you are missing one  or more teeth. They are surfaced to natural teeth or implants surrounding the space  where the tooth once stood.
In addition to strengthening a damaged tooth, crown and bridges can be used to  improve a tooth’s appearance, shape, alignment and dental occlusion (bite). Gaps left  by missing teeth can cause the remaining teeth to shift, which can result in a bad bite.
Crown and bridges help prevent this from happening.   To book your consultation  regarding crown and bridges, please contact our friendly team at Sanctuary Lakes  Family Dental.
