Crowns, Bridges, and Veneers

If you have a damaged or decayed tooth, our dentists can help you choose the best solution.

Crowns and bridges are custom-fitted tooth prosthetics that function and look like natural, healthy teeth.

Veneers are a less invasive alternative, but may only be a solution for those with slight tooth damage or discolouration.

These thin porcelain or resin shells come in customisable colours and are bonded to the surface of your teeth.

Crowns

A crown, otherwise known as a cap, is custom-fitted to your bite and is placed over your natural tooth or dental implant.

We recommend this procedure for those who have teeth that are damaged or decayed on the surface without extensive damage to the tooth root.

Procedure: NEW Digital Dentistry

We will reduce the problematic tooth for a proper crown fit
A Digital Impression will be taken of your bite for crown fabrication (No More Messy Impression material)
Using modern CAD CAM technology, veneers, crowns and bridges could be made in a short period of time, often within few hours (1 Day Crown)

Bridges

To replace a missing tooth that has neighboring teeth with decay and/or large fillings, or a tooth that has been missing for a long time (i.e., with gum recession around the area), we may recommend bridges.

Types of Bridges:

Traditional — Caps are bonded over teeth that lie on either side of the missing one
Cantilever — Cap is bonded over a single tooth next to the missing one
Resin-bonded — Porcelain or plastic teeth with gums that are supported by metal “wings”

With the advent of implant dentistry, less bridges are made in our clinic, having a one unit implant-crown is definitely the treatment of choice compare to a 3-unit bridge.
