Crowns & Bridges
Crown and Bridge treatment is a long-term method of replacing missing teeth. A Crown is placed over an individual tooth where there is no longer sufficient tooth structure left to place a filling. A Bridge spans space where one or more teeth have been lost in the dental arch. The teeth on either end of the span are crowned, and are referred to as abutments. The false teeth in a bridge that join the abutments are referred to as pontics. Crown and Bridges are most often made from superior materials such as precious metals (gold) semi-precious metals, porcelain, or a combination of metal fused to porcelain. Both esthetics and function are considered when selecting the material most suitable for your case.
