Dental Crown and Bridge Treatments for Lasting Smiles
If you want your smile to be your crowning glory, you need healthy and attractive teeth. Unfortunately, when teeth become cracked, stained, or damaged, they not only affect your appearance but also your overall oral health. In such cases, your dentist may recommend a dental crown or dental bridge to restore your smile’s function and beauty.
A dental crown acts as a protective covering that fits over a weakened or damaged tooth, helping to restore its strength, shape, and natural appearance. It is often used after root canal treatments, large fillings, or fractures to prevent further damage. On the other hand, a dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth, using surrounding natural teeth or implants for support, ensuring proper bite alignment and stability.
At Bexley Dental, our experienced team provides high-quality restorations that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. We use advanced materials and techniques to design crowns and bridges that not only look great but also last for years. Whether you need a single Crown and Bridge solution or a full-mouth restoration, Bexley Dental ensures you receive personalised care and long-term comfort.
Dental Crown
A dental crown is a type of restoration that completely covers a tooth, bringing it back to its natural shape and size. It helps strengthen the tooth and enhance its overall appearance. A dental cap may be recommended for several reasons, depending on your dental needs.
- To support a large filling when there isn’t enough tooth remaining
- To attach a bridge
- To protect weak teeth from fracturing
- To restore fractured teeth
- To cover badly shaped or discoloured teeth
- To cover a dental implant
Dental Bridge
The space left by missing teeth can affect the rest of your teeth and cause discomfort while chewing. When even one tooth is missing, nearby teeth may shift out of place, altering your bite and leading to jaw soreness. Cleaning your teeth also becomes harder, increasing the risk of decay and gum disease. A dental bridge helps fill these gaps and restore proper alignment.
