Bridges & Crowns - Restore Function and Beauty
Dental Bridges
Bridges are dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth. Gaps left by missing teeth can cause neighboring teeth to shift, which may lead to:
-
Bite imbalance
-
Gum disease
-
Poor digestion
-
Jaw joint issues
A bridge spans the gap to restore proper function and appearance. At Family and Cosmetic Dentistry, each bridge is custom-made for a natural, seamless smile.
Dental Crowns
Crowns are used to restore the function, strength, and appearance of a tooth. They are often recommended for:
-
Large cavities that cannot be filled
-
Fractured or damaged teeth
-
Teeth that have had root canal therapy
-
Improving the color or shape of a tooth
-
Covering implants
Crowns provide a natural look and blend seamlessly with your other teeth.
Caring for Your Bridges and Crowns
Proper oral hygiene is essential to maintain your dental work. We recommend:
-
Brushing at least twice daily
-
Flossing or cleaning between teeth daily
-
Using a water pick to clean under bridges, especially before bedtime
