About Crowns & Bridges
Crowns and bridges restore teeth that are too damaged for a filling, or replace a tooth that is already missing.
What to Expect
A crown covers and protects a tooth that has been weakened by a large cavity, a crack, or a root canal, restoring its strength and shape. A bridge takes that same idea a step further, using the teeth on either side of a gap to support a replacement tooth where one is missing.
Dr. Dhawan will examine the tooth in question and explain whether a crown, a bridge, or a different restorative option is the better fit. We will also talk with you about how the restoration will look and function, so there are no surprises before treatment begins.
If you are missing one or more teeth and want to compare a bridge to other replacement options, ask us about dental implants as well — we are happy to talk through what makes sense for your smile.
