Crown & Bridge
In Toronto and Mississauga, Ontario
Crowns and bridges are two cosmetic dentistry procedures used to repair damaged or missing teeth. They cannot only improve appearance, but they restore function to your teeth and reverse the effects of tooth damage or loss. At Willow Dental in Mississauga, Ontario, we can repair your damaged teeth and restore your smile to one you will be proud of.
Porcelain Crowns
Crowns are used when the tooth is damaged, fractured or decayed beyond repair. The crown restores the tooth to its original shape and size. Bridges may be used when the tooth must be extracted or is already missing. Which procedure is most effective for you will be discussed during your initial consultation with your cosmetic dentist.
Durable and more natural looking, crowns and bridges are generally made from porcelain materials. These restorations often cannot be distinguished from the patient's natural teeth.
Porcelain Bridges
If the patient's tooth is decayed or fractured beyond what a crown can restore, then a bridge may be necessary. In this case, a dental implant will be combined with a bridge to restore the tooth.
A bridge is created to literally bridge the gap between your implant and the surrounding natural teeth. Bridge procedures are necessary to avoid bite and jaw problems created by shifting teeth surrounding a space where a tooth is missing or has been removed.
If you are considering a dental crown or bridge to help bridge the gap in your teeth, contact the cosmetic dentists at Willow Dental in Ontario today to schedule an appointment.
