About crowns and bridges
A crown is a custom cap that covers and protects a tooth that’s cracked, heavily filled, or weakened — often after a root canal. A bridge uses crowns on either side of a gap to hold a replacement tooth.
Both are made to match the shape and shade of your natural teeth, so the result blends in and restores normal chewing and confidence.
What’s involved
- An exam and impressions or a digital scan of the tooth
- Shaping the tooth so the crown fits precisely
- Fitting and bonding the final restoration
- A bite check to make sure everything feels right
Crown or bridge — which do you need?
A crown restores a single damaged tooth that’s still in place. A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the healthy teeth on either side.
We’ll assess the teeth and talk through the options — including implants, which can be a longer-lasting alternative to a bridge in some cases.
Not sure which you need? Book an assessment and we’ll examine the tooth, explain your options, and give you a written estimate before anything starts.
Common questions
With good care, many years — often a decade or more. Brushing, flossing under a bridge, and regular checkups all extend their life.
Yes. Crowns and bridges are colour-matched to your surrounding teeth, so they blend in rather than stand out.
Usually two: one to prepare the tooth and take impressions, and one to fit the final restoration. You’ll have a temporary in between.
Each has trade-offs. Bridges are quicker and need no surgery; implants last longer and don’t rely on neighbouring teeth. We’ll help you weigh them.
