When is a crown recommended?
When a tooth is too weak for a filling: large cavities, cracks, after a root canal, or to improve the shape of a worn tooth.
How does a bridge work?
Crowns on the neighbouring teeth support a false tooth in between, fixed permanently in place. It restores your bite and stops the other teeth drifting.
Crown or implant?
An implant replaces a tooth without touching its neighbours. A bridge is quicker and suits some situations better. We will talk through both.
