Porcelain crowns and bridges
Porcelain crowns and bridges are at the forefront of advanced cosmetic dentistry treatment.
Sometimes the teeth can become weakened as a result of decay or injury and a crown may be needed to strengthen the tooth and support the structure of the tooth. Porcelain crowns, sometimes known as caps, replace the decayed portion of the tooth. The new crown will be matched to your existing teeth so that your smile looks natural and healthy. Porcelain crowns are durable and the tooth will work in exactly the same way as a natural tooth.
Porcelain crowns can also be used to reshape and realign the teeth, creating a healthier looking and radiant smile.
If you have missing teeth, a porcelain bridge can be used to fill the gap. The bridge is attached by a crown on either side of the gap and can create a completely natural looking smile. Porcelain dental bridges are hard-wearing and will restore maximum functionality to your teeth. It is important to fill gaps in the teeth because missing teeth can affect speech and your ability to eat.
Of course, you may also feel self-conscious when you smile. A porcelain bridge can improve the aesthetic of your smile and restore your confidence.
These metal-free restorations are not only beautiful but extremely strong, designed to strengthen teeth and help reinforce them under the stress of everyday chewing and function, as well as grinding stress.
