Is your tooth damaged due to a cavity? Do you currently have silver amalgam fillings that need to be replaced? Are these fillings causing teeth sensitivity and breaking your tooth apart further because you’ve had them for so long? When you choose tooth-colored fillings to repair teeth, you’re getting a filling that that does not require removal of tooth enamel to place and can be blended to match the current shade of your tooth enamel!

A dental bridge is one of the most effective ways for a patient to replace multiple missing teeth that exist consecutively along an arch. Fitting smoothly into place and anchored with the help of healthy abutment teeth, the prosthetic is crafted using two dental crowns and free-standing artificial teeth, which are also known as pontics. The crowns fit over the adjacent teeth on either side of the gap, while the remainder of the bridge rests on top of the gums, creating a complete smile that works correctly and looks natural.
