Hi there, Dr Linda here from Bacchus Marsh Dental House.
Got a missing tooth or a damaged one, and now you’re wondering how dental crowns and bridges actually work? Let’s talk about it!
So, crowns are like protective covers that go over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. They’re often made from materials like porcelain, zirconia, or metal-infused porcelain, and they help make your tooth look and feel just like new.
Now, bridges are used to fill in a gap from a missing tooth by anchoring onto the teeth next to it. It’s like building a strong fence with posts on either side, solving two issues at once by keeping everything sturdy and filling that empty space. It’s a great, more affordable way to restore your smile’s function and look.
Well, now you know how they work! So, if you’re considering restoring your smile with a crown or bridge but aren’t sure if it’s the right choice for you, feel free to send us a DM or give us a call at 1800GENTLE. We’ll happily help you figure it out and get you set up with a consultation.
And don’t forget, we have a great range of payment plan options to make it easier for you!
