Upgrade Your Smile With A Crown & Bridge

Crowns and bridges are dental procedures offered at Aylmer Family Dental in Aylmer to restore a missing or damaged tooth. A crown is a cap that fits over an existing tooth, protecting it from further damage, while a bridge replaces one or more missing teeth and is anchored in place by crowns or artificial teeth.

How are crowns and bridges placed?

After a comprehensive examination and consultation, our dentist will prepare the tooth by removing a small portion of enamel to ensure the crown fits properly. A mould is taken from the area and sent off to a dental lab, where it is used to custom-design and craft your crown or bridge. In some cases, a temporary crown or bridge may be placed to protect the existing teeth while the permanent appliance is being made.

What are the benefits of crowns & bridges?

By replacing up to three missing teeth in a row, crowns and bridges can restore and improve your smile, enhance your ability to chew and speak, maintain proper facial structure, and prevent the remaining teeth from drifting into the space left by the missing tooth. They’re very durable and can last for decades with proper care.

Who should consider crowns and bridges?

Crowns and bridges can be a good solution for patients who have suffered damage to their existing teeth and those who are missing one or more permanent teeth.

Our experienced dentist at Aylmer Family Dental can evaluate your case and determine whether crowns or bridges are the right solution for restoring your smile. Contact us today to discuss your options and book an appointment!
