At Chancellor Dental Centre, our Winnipeg dentists use dental crowns and bridges to restore your smile.
What are Crowns & Bridges?
Crowns and bridges are two restorative dental treatments that can help to restore the normal function and appearance of your smile.
They are used to help fill spaces left by missing teeth. They also help to maintain your natural facial shape and can return your ability to speak and chew properly.
Our dentists can help restore your smile, and your oral health, by repairing structural problems such as damaged or missing teeth using a dental crown or bridge.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are hollow, artificial teeth that are placed over an entire decayed or damaged tooth to restore its original shape, size and colour. Dental crowns help improve the strength, function and appearance of a broken tooth that may otherwise be lost.
Crowns are strong and can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain and metal. They look and function like natural teeth, and if cared for properly, can last 10 years or more.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a natural-looking 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.
A bridge helps to prevent your other teeth from shifting positions to fill the space, which could lead to more serious dental issues including gum disease.
