Dental crowns and bridges are fixed restorative solutions used to repair damaged teeth or replace missing teeth. They are designed to restore both function and appearance, helping you regain a strong, stable, and natural-looking smile. At ICE ALB Smiles, we use high-quality dental materials and modern digital technology to create restorations that fit comfortably, look natural, and are built for long-term durability.
A dental crown is a custom-made restoration placed over a weakened, broken, heavily filled, or damaged tooth. It helps protect the remaining tooth structure while restoring its original shape, strength, and appearance. Crowns are also commonly used after root canal treatment or placed over dental implants.
A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by supporting an artificial tooth with neighbouring natural teeth or dental implants. This fixed solution helps restore chewing function, improves the appearance of the smile, and prevents surrounding teeth from shifting into the empty space.
How the Treatment Works
- Clinical examination and digital scanning of the teeth
- Preparation of the teeth when required
- Precise digital measurements and shade selection
- Custom fabrication of the crown or dental bridge
- Final placement and careful adjustment
- Bite assessment to ensure comfort and proper function
Dental crowns and bridges are often recommended when teeth are fractured, severely worn, extensively decayed, weakened after treatment, or missing. Each restoration is individually designed to match the colour, shape, and proportions of your natural teeth for a balanced and harmonious result.
