Crown and Bridge

Crowns are often the best way to strengthen a heavily filled tooth. Crowns are placed over the tooth and bonded onto the tooth which has previously been cut down by about 1-2mm all around. Crowns can be made of Gold, Porcelain, Non precious metal alloys, Special mineral materials or a combination of metal and porcelain. Crowns are ideal for root canal treated teeth and for improving the strength and appearance of a tooth especially in the front of the mouth.

Bridges are constructed as a combination of Crowns together with artificial teeth to:

• Improve the appearance, filling up spaces
• Stop future movement and tilting of teeth
• Improve chewing ability
