Crowns & Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges are common dental restorations to address tooth decay, gaps, fractures or discolouration. The permanent fixtures “cap” a damaged tooth or replace missing teeth, reinforcing the strength of your bite and the shine of your smile.

Dental and Facial Clinic are highly experienced at providing custom made caps and bridges using industry-leading methods and materials made right here in the surgery.

There are 3 types of materials used for crowns at Dental and Facial Clinic:

Full Zirconia
Full Emax
All metal, usually gold

Crowns

Crowns are usually bonded to the tooth with adhesive dental cement. Each available type differs in indications, durability, strength, appearance and cost.

Dr. Hazouri will recommend the best solution based on your specific needs.

Bridges

A bridge replaces a missing tooth by joining an artificial tooth permanently to adjacent teeth or a dental implant. Bridges can be made from Zirconia, connecting between 2 teeth or as a canter lever.

Our dentists may recommend a bridge if you miss one or more teeth. Especially if you are at risk of gum disease or wish to replace a front tooth for aesthetic reasons, dental bridges provide a sustainable solution customised to match your existing teeth.

Our highly experienced In-House Dental Laboratory provides custom-made caps and bridges using industry-leading methods and materials.

Q&A

WHEN WOULD I NEED A DENTAL CROWN?

We may recommend a dental crown to:

Repair a fractured tooth
Cover discolouration
Protect a weak or decayed tooth
Cover a tooth after a root canal
Strengthen loose teeth
Realign your bite
Cover a large filling
Repair teeth in cases of trauma
Attach a dental implant (bridge Or for any other reason that results in a full and even smile.)

What happens during the procedure?

Having a Bridge made is very similar to a dental crown. Where as a dental crown is one tooth, a bridge requires teeth on either side of the gap to be cut away. After the impressions are taken. The laboratory will start work on making your bridge. You will leave the appointment with a temporary bridge for 1-2 weeks.

Are there any alternatives?

Your dentist may recommend a dental crown or alternative treatment depending on your specific requirements. Here are some of the common dental crown alternatives:

Dental problem	Alternative
Missing tooth	Dental bridge, implants and denture
