At Prime Dental Care, we provide services which include restoring teeth with a crown. A crown is a tooth-shaped "cap" that is placed over a tooth - to cover the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and improve its appearance.

The crowns, when cemented into place, fully encase the entire visible portion of a tooth that lies at and above the gum line.

However, if you lose your teeth because of tooth decay or injury, a bridge will be used to fill the gap. The best part about bridges is that they can fill the gap of one or more teeth. The bridge also mimics your original tooth (or teeth). This is to mean that at the end of the procedure, the bridges will look exactly like your original teeth.

Therefore, to restore your esteem, pride and smile, your dentist will either use crowns or bridges to replace missing or broken teeth. Both of these dental approaches are the solution to serious dental problems. Crowns and bridges are long lasting solutions for anyone who is looking for reliable and permanent dental solutions.

Options for Crown & Bridge

most commonly there are three types of options available:

• Metal
• Ceramic
• Zirconia

Now a days, Crown & Bridges are also made using CAD-CAM technology which means they are made using scanners & computerized software which has better sitting and durability.
