The Crestwood Family Dental team is here to help restore your smile with crowns and bridges that are comfortable, seamless and designed for you. We offer a range of solutions using high-quality materials such as zirconia or ceramics. At Crestwood Family Dental we will never use poor or cheap quality materials, such as ‘hybrid-ceramics’ consisting of both composite and ceramic.
Whether you have a tooth that is stained, cracked, chipped, malformed or suffered a loss of structure due to decay—our team will create crowns and bridges that are tailored to your exact needs. At Crestwood Family Dental, we understand the importance of restoring smiles so our patients can feel confident in everyday life.
Not only do crowns and bridges function for aesthetic purposes, but they also help with talking and chewing!Â
Crowns and bridges can last for many years, however there is no guarantee. To ensure your crown or bridge lasts, good oral hygiene practices and regular check-ups are recommended.
If you are concerned about a damaged or missing tooth, book a consultation at Crestwood Family Dental today, either online through our website or call our clinic on (07) 5649 8661.
Many people are unsure of the difference between dental crowns and bridges. The main difference is that a crown is used to cover a tooth still attached to the jaw, while a bridge is used to close the gap left by one or more missing teeth. Both are used to restore aesthetics and function.
Crowns can be thought of as hollow caps that cover the visible part of the tooth from top to bottom. Not to be confused with veneers, which only cover the front of your tooth, crowns cover the whole tooth, adding additional structure where it may be lost. The colour, shape and structure of the crown are all designed to blend in seamlessly with surrounding teeth.
A dental bridge, on the other hand, is often made up of two or more crowns that have been fused together, with the middle section filling a gap left by missing teeth.
