What are dental crowns and bridges?
Dental crowns and bridges allow dentists to protect and restore damaged teeth. Typically, when tooth decay is severe enough that it can’t be treated with a filling, a dental crown will be used to cover, or cap, the tooth. Crowns are also commonly used to seal teeth that have been treated with root canal therapy. And occasionally, dental crowns are used for cosmetic purposes or in smile makeovers.
A dental bridge is a type of dental work that replaces a tooth or a few consecutive missing teeth. Two dental crowns are placed on the healthy teeth living on either side of the gap left by your lost tooth. A false tooth, or pontic, is attached to the crowns and literally bridges the gap, replacing your missing tooth.

Missing more than just a couple of teeth? There’s no need to wait in pain and discomfort any longer. Implant-retained bridges can replace the entire arch of your grin for a sturdy, seamless smile.
The Same-Day Crowns and Bridges Treatment Process
Digital Impressions
We start by taking precise digital scans of your teeth using our advanced intraoral camera. This quick and comfortable process captures every detail of your tooth structure, ensuring a perfect fit for your new restoration. No more messy traditional impressions – just a few minutes of scanning is all it takes.
Custom Design
Using specialized software, we design your crown or bridge to match your natural teeth perfectly. You'll be able to see a 3D model of your new restoration and provide input on the shape and shade. This collaborative approach ensures you're fully satisfied with the final result before we begin crafting it.
In-Office Milling
Once the design is finalized, our state-of-the-art milling machine goes to work. In about an hour, your custom crown or bridge is expertly crafted from a solid block of high-quality, tooth-colored ceramic. This material is not only durable but also provides a natural-looking result that blends seamlessly with your smile.
Final Placement
After a quick polish and any necessary adjustments, your new restoration is ready to be placed. We carefully bond the crown or bridge to your prepared tooth, ensuring a secure fit and proper bite alignment. Before you leave, we'll make sure you're completely comfortable with your new restoration and provide care instructions to help maintain its longevity.
