When a restoration needs more support
Crowns are often recommended when a tooth is weakened by decay, a fracture, or a large older filling. A crown covers the visible part of the tooth to help protect it and improve how it functions in your bite.
Bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth by connecting a replacement tooth to support on neighboring teeth or implants. The right option depends on your goals, your bite, and the condition of surrounding teeth.
Common reasons patients need crowns or bridges
- Cracked or heavily worn teeth
- Teeth with large failing fillings
- Teeth that have had root canal treatment
- Single missing teeth or short gaps in the smile
How we plan the right restoration
Not every damaged or missing tooth is treated the same way. We evaluate bite forces, gum health, surrounding tooth support, and the location of the tooth before recommending a crown, bridge, or another option such as dental implants.
Our goal is not just to restore appearance, but to create a restoration that feels dependable in daily chewing and speaking.
