What is a Dental Crown?
Restore Strength, Function, and Appearance
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that fully covers a damaged or weakened single tooth. Crowns restore strength, function, and appearance, protecting your tooth from further damage.
What is a Dental Bridge?
Replace Missing Teeth and Maintain Your Smile
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent healthy teeth or implants. Bridges restore your bite, prevent teeth from shifting, and maintain your smile’s natural appearance.

Explore Options to Restore Your Smile
Our team will help you determine the best option based on your oral health, function, and esthetic goals. Common alternatives and related treatments include:
Veneers: Thin shells that cover only the front surface of teeth to improve esthetics. Unlike crowns, veneers don’t fully cover or strengthen the tooth
Dental Implants: Permanent replacements for missing teeth, anchored directly into the jawbone. Unlike bridges, implants do not rely on adjacent teeth for support
