Why Crowns and Bridges?

Crowns and bridges are fixed restorations that bring back strength, shape, and appearance after decay, fractures, root-canal therapy, or tooth loss. In implant dentistry they’re the finishing touch—crowns screw onto individual posts, and bridges span longer gaps between implants.

Crowns — Single-Tooth Restoration

  • Materials range from translucent porcelain and zirconia to gold or porcelain-fused-to-metal.
  • Replace lost tooth structure after decay, root canal, cracks, or large failing fillings.
  • Screw onto implant posts for the most natural look and bite—no adhesives, no clasps.

Bridges — Replacing Several Missing Teeth

  • Custom spans restore bite alignment and natural contours.
  • Traditional bridge: crowns cemented to teeth on each side of the gap.
  • Cantilever bridge: anchored on one side when only one abutment tooth is available.
  • Maryland bridge: conservative, bonded wing design ideal for low-stress zones.
  • Implant-supported bridge: secured to two or more implants; no tooth enamel removed, no risk of slipping.
