Dental crowns are custom caps that cover damaged or decayed teeth to restore their strength, shape and appearance. Dental bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth (pontic) to neighbouring teeth or implants. Together, these restorations bring back comfortable chewing and the natural look of your smile.
We craft crowns and bridges using high‑quality porcelain, ceramic and zirconia materials to match your natural teeth. Each restoration is designed to blend seamlessly with your smile.
Digital scanning and in‑house milling allow us to create precise crowns, often in a single visit. Enjoy greater comfort and convenience with fewer appointments.
Our dentists have extensive training in prosthodontics and cosmetic dentistry. They work diligently to deliver durable, aesthetically pleasing results that restore your bite and confidence.
We accept most PPO and HMO plans, offer financing and provide discounts for payment in full. Our team will help you find a plan that fits your budget.

Crowns restore strength to worn, cracked or decayed teeth so you can chew and speak comfortably. They protect teeth after root canal therapy, repair large fractures and improve tooth shape, size and colour. Crowns may also support a dental implant or act as an anchor for a bridge.
Bridges replace missing teeth to restore function and appearance. They prevent neighbouring teeth from drifting, maintain proper jaw alignment and spread bite forces more evenly. Bridges are often a less invasive and more affordable alternative to implants, typically completed in two visits.

How Long Do Crowns & Bridges Last?
With proper care, crowns and bridges are durable solutions that can serve you well for many years. Dental crowns typically last between 10 and 15 years or longer, depending on the material and your oral hygiene habits. Bridges generally last 5 to 15 years before needing replacement. Good oral hygiene, regular dental visits and avoiding habits like clenching or chewing hard objects will help your restoration last longer.
Signs Your Crown or Bridge May Need Replacement
- Sensitivity around the tooth or gums
- A visible crack or worn margin near the gum line
- Movement or looseness when chewing
- Dark areas under the crown
- Recurrent decay or changes in the gum around the tooth
Our team will work with you to select the right materials and will provide detailed care instructions to help you get the most out of your new restoration.
Contact us if you notice looseness, sensitivity or any change in bite or comfort. Quick attention supports long-term stability and helps maintain the function and appearance of your restoration.
