Tooth Restoration
There are many choices available today for tooth restoration. Simple restoration involves filling a prepared tooth with a tooth-colored composite material, gold or silver amalgam. More customized restoration includes crowns, bridges and implants.
Crowns & Bridges:
Crowns are also known as “caps” and are a covering that is placed over a carefully prepared existing tooth. A crown is used to strengthen and restore the tooth.
- A bridge is a customized device that is anchored to the adjacent teeth by crowns.
- Benefits of Crown & Bridge Restoration:
- Maintains and restores the natural bite
