For a Royal Smile
Crown & Bridges
At Ora Dental, we make certain that your smile is both beautiful and healthy through our comprehensive cosmetic dental services. Tooth crowns and dental bridges are just two of the many treatments we offer to make that possible.
If you suffer from damaged or misshapen teeth, our dental crowns and bridges could be a great option for you. They are among the most common dental restoration treatments, replacing missing teeth or restoring teeth that have suffered from trauma, decay, and more. We provide the highest quality crowns and bridges in Scarborough, using our expert training and knowledge to truly transform smiles. Dr. Jess and Dr. Chris make certain that our crowns and bridges blend seamlessly with the rest of your smile, giving you life-changing results and building confidence.
What is a Crown?
Tooth crowns are fixtures created by dentists to cover or ‘cap’ the portion of your tooth above the gums. They are used to reinforce the structure of a damaged, weak, or rotting tooth. This helps to restore the tooth’s natural function and to maintain its size, strength, shape, and appearance. Crowns are extremely important if you have decaying teeth, as you may need a root canal if left untreated. Further damage is thus prevented when placing a crown over a suffering tooth. Without a crown, the tooth is often unsalvageable. Crowns can also replace a missing tooth by being placed on top of a dental implant.
What is a Dental Bridge?
While crowns can repair damaged teeth, a bridge’s sole function is to permanently replace missing teeth. If a tooth or multiple teeth are missing, we can close – or bridge – the gaps in your smile using this procedure. The dental bridge is typically made of crowns on either side of the missing tooth or teeth. These crowns support the artificial tooth that is custom-made to fit the empty space. Lastly, the false tooth is cemented in place to give you a flawless, long-last smile.
