Crown & Bridge Work

There are several different ways of restoring teeth, the most common being a filling.  Badly decayed, broken , severely discolored teeth or  malaligned  teeth cannot  be repaired  by fillings .  Crowns  are  used  to  repair such  teeth. A crown  is  an  artificial  covering  for  the tooth and  can be made out of  several  different  types  of  material. The tooth under the crown is reduced in size, over which the crown will be permanently cemented. Similarly for a Bridge the two teeth adjoining the missing space are reduced. Crown & bridges can be made of Porcelain (Ceramic), Gold or a combination of Metal and Porcelain or Gold and Porcelain. Crowns & bridges look just like regular teeth and no one but you and your dentist will know which tooth is yours and which one is artificial
