We understand that you want your smile to be both healthy and attractive. At Your Smile Group® Affiliated practices, we offer natural-looking crowns and bridges that restore your smile’s function, improve its health, and enhance its beauty.
A dental crown is a restoration that is used when the tooth is damaged too seriously to be repaired with a filling. The crown completely covers the part of the tooth that is visible above the gums.
This allows the crown to effectively strengthen the tooth and protect it from further damage. We use local anesthesia during the procedure to keep you comfortable.
If your smile would benefit from a dental crown, our experienced team will ensure that you understand the procedure.
A tooth is severely decayed and cannot be repaired with a filling.
A tooth is cracked and needs protection and reinforcement.
A tooth already has a large filling and can no longer support the filling or has additional decay or damage.
A tooth is seriously worn and requires restoration and protection.
A tooth needs protection following root canal therapy to prevent future damage.
A dental implant needs to be completed with a restoration.
A crown works by completely covering the visible part of the tooth. During the procedure, some of the natural tooth structure is removed. The custom-made crown is then placed over your natural tooth, providing it with strength and protection from damage.
Depending on your particular needs and preferences, dental crowns can be completed in two or three visits to our office.
A dental bridge is a restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. A bridge uses your remaining natural teeth as anchors to support the replacement tooth.
No matter which type of dental bridge you need, our skilled dentists will ensure that your restoration is natural-looking and comfortable for your smile.
YOUR COMFORT MATTERS
We offer several types of dental bridges to meet your specific needs and preferences.
The most common type of bridge. It uses two crowns on either side of the missing tooth or teeth. The crowns are placed on the natural teeth adjacent to the missing tooth, supporting the replacement tooth.
This type of dental bridge uses a crown on only one side of the missing tooth. It is most commonly used for front teeth.
This kind of bridge bonds to the back of teeth adjacent to the gap left by the missing teeth. This may be used as a temporary solution.
This type of dental bridge is anchored by one or more dental implants rather than natural teeth. This may be a good option if you are missing multiple teeth in a row.
You may need a bridge if you are missing one or more teeth. At Your Smile Group® Affiliated practices, we are proud to offer multiple options for replacing missing teeth, including bridges, partial dentures, full dentures, and dental implants. Our dentists will discuss your particular needs and personal preferences with you to ensure that you choose the option that is right for you.
