Restoring Your Smile with Crown and Bridge
If you're dealing with damaged or missing teeth, dental crowns and bridges may be one of the alternatives for the teeth replacements.
Dental Crowns: Restoring Individual Teeth
Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-made prosthetic restorations that cover the entire surface of a damaged or weakened tooth. Made from durable materials such as porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys, crowns provide strength, protection, and aesthetic enhancement to compromised teeth.


Why choose our Dental Crowns?
- To repair damaged tooth: Crowns can restore teeth that are cracked, fractured, or severely worn down, providing structural support and preventing further damage.
- To Cover Large Fillings: When a tooth has extensive decay or requires large filling, a crown can reinforce the tooth and prevent fracture. Besides that, after root canal treatment, you are advised to get a crown to protect your weakened tooth.
- To Enhance Appearance: Crowns can also be used for cosmetic purposes, such as covering discoloured or misshapen teeth, creating a more uniform and attractive smile.
The Dental Crown Process
First Visit
Consultation
During your initial consultation, the dentist will evaluate your oral health and discuss the best treatment options for your needs.
Second Visit
Crown Preparation & Taking Impression
To prepare the tooth for the crown, any decayed or damaged portions are removed, and the tooth is reshaped to accommodate the crown. Then, impressions of your teeth are taken, which are used to fabricate a custom-made crown that fits perfectly. The dentist may design and place a temporary crown to protect the tooth while waiting for your permanent crown to be fabricated.
Third Visit
Crown Placement
Once your permanent crown is ready, you will be contacted to visit the clinic for crown fitting. The dentist will cement the crown onto the prepared tooth, restoring the tooth function and appearance.
Dental Bridges: Filling the Gap
Dental bridges are similar to crowns, used to replace one or more missing teeth by bridging the gap between adjacent teeth. A bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth (also known as pontics) held in place by multiple units of dental crowns attached to the natural teeth on either side of the gap.


Why choose our dental bridge?
- To Replace Missing Teeth: Bridges are an effective solution for restoring function and aesthetics in cases of tooth loss.
- To Prevent Shifting: By filling the gap left by missing teeth, bridges help maintain the alignment of surrounding teeth and prevent them from shifting out of place.
- To Improve Chewing and Speaking: Bridges restore the ability to chew food properly and speak clearly, enhancing overall oral function.
