Crowns are custom caps that cover damaged or decayed teeth, restoring their shape, size, and strength. If you have missing teeth, a dental bridge can be used to fill the gap, using adjacent teeth for support. Both crowns and bridges are designed to look and function like natural teeth, improving both your smile and your bite.

During the procedure, we remove the infected tissue inside the tooth and seal it, preventing the infection from spreading and allowing the tooth to heal. This procedure helps preserve the tooth and avoid extraction.

Bonding can restore both function and aesthetics to damaged teeth.
