Crowns & Bridges

Crowns and bridges are trusted restorative treatments that repair damaged teeth and fill gaps left by missing ones. At Grange Road Dental, we use high-quality, tooth-coloured materials so your restoration blends naturally with your smile.

A dental crown is important when a tooth has a large filling, cracks or needs extra support and protection. At Grange Road Dental, we use a technique called biomimetic crowns. Rather than removing healthy tooth structure to fit a traditional cap, biomimetic crowns conserve all the good existing structure and recreate the strength the tooth had before it was ever filled. This conservative approach aims to give the tooth longevity while preserving as much natural tooth as possible.

To replace missing teeth, you have several options. Traditional dental bridges anchor an artificial tooth to the healthy teeth on either side of the gap. Single dental implants replace a tooth without involving the adjacent teeth, which is where their advantage lies. For front teeth in particular, we can sometimes use a conservative two-unit bridge that bonds in without extensive preparation. We will help you understand which approach suits your situation.

The process for crowns and bridges typically involves two visits. At your first appointment, we prepare the teeth and take impressions for your custom restoration. A temporary restoration protects your teeth while the permanent one is crafted. At your second visit, we fit the final restoration, checking your bite and comfort. With proper care, crowns and bridges can last many years.
