Crowns: A cover/cap over the tooth to restore strength and appearance, preventing fractures. All our crowns are fabricated out of Zirconia or Porcelain. These are very safe and robust materials while also providing a life-like appearance to match the colour of the rest of your teeth. Crowning a tooth/teeth is the strongest restoration we have in dentistry.
A dental crown may be recommended for a tooth for various purposes, these include:
- Teeth with extensive fillings
- Root Canal Treated Teeth
- Extensive Rehabilitation/Re-build of the mouth
- Severe wear or erosion of teeth.
- Weak teeth
Bridges are similar to crowns and can be used to close the gap between two teeth. They stay permanently in the mouth and can give you the confidence to eat and speak comfortably.
Veneers are thin layers of porcelain or resin material placed over tooth surfaces to improve their aesthetic appearance. Your smile can be transformed within 1-2 appointments, and the outcomes are stunning.
At Alpha Dental & Implant Centre, both options dramatically improve your smile, and our dentists can help you decide which is most appropriate.
