In some situations where a lot of tooth structure has been lost, our dentists may recommend placing a crown on your tooth. This is because fillings are made out of a weaker and more flexible material that work well for smaller cavities but are not ideal for larger restorations.
Dental Bridges may also be recommended to replace a missing tooth in certain situations where we are unable to place a dental implant.
Crowns and Bridges are made out of ceramic, metal or a combination of both materials. They cover the whole tooth in order to strengthen and protect it and are the strongest and longest lasting restorations we can provide.
