Crowns are permanent tooth colored restorations that are used when a tooth is severely decayed or fractured. In these situations a filling or onlay may not be strong enough to hold the tooth together. Crowns strengthen and protect the remaining tooth structure and can improve the appearance of the patients smile.
Bridges
When one or more teeth are lost our dentists may recommend a bridge, which can be used to replace the missing teeth without the need for a denture or an implant.
