Dental Crowns & Bridges in Toronto
Repair Structural Issues
Crowns and bridges are restorative dental treatments that can help return your smile's normal function and appearance.
Crowns are used to cap damaged or decaying teeth. Bridges can fill the space left by missing teeth and help maintain your jawline's natural contour by preventing facial collapse.
Custom-made crowns and bridges from Live Well Dental are matched to the shape and colour of your existing teeth. These restorations provide you with a smile that looks natural and helps to improve your ability to speak clearly and chew effectively.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are hollow, artificial teeth that are placed over a decayed or damaged tooth to restore its original shape and colour. Crowns help strengthen and change the appearance of a broken tooth that may otherwise be lost.
Metal and gold crowns are suitable for back tooth restorations, but their colour is the main drawback. Porcelain crowns combine aesthetics, durability and strength and are used to cap front teeth. They may not be ideal for restoring rear teeth where chewing forces are high. Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns offer added strength without compromising aesthetics.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a restoration that 'bridges' a gap of missing teeth in your mouth. Made up of one or more artificial teeth, the bridge is affixed to the teeth on either side of the gap to fill the space.
There are different types of dental bridges, including traditional models, cantilever, Maryland and implant-supported bridges. Porcelain bridges may last for more than five years with proper care, and their glass-like translucency allows them to blend in with your dental arch, resulting in a natural-looking smile.
