The Dental Crown and Bridge Process
- Consultation & Exam: Your dentist evaluates your teeth and prepares the area by gently reshaping the base teeth and removing a small amount of enamel to ensure a proper fit.
- Temporary Restoration: Impressions are taken of your teeth, and a temporary crown or bridge is placed to protect the area while your final restoration is being created. (This step may be skipped with same-day crowns.)
- Shade Matching & Design: Your crown or bridge is carefully designed based on your impressions, with shade matching to ensure a natural, seamless appearance.
- Final Placement: Your custom crown or bridge is fitted, adjusted for comfort, and securely bonded in place to restore strength, function, and aesthetics.
What is a dental crown?
Dental crowns are used when a tooth is too damaged for a filling, such as from advanced decay or enamel injury. They can also serve cosmetic purposes as a more durable alternative to veneers.
Crowns are placed over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, strength, and function. They can also be attached to dental implants to replace missing teeth without relying on adjacent teeth. Implant-supported crowns use a titanium post placed in the jawbone, creating a stable, long-lasting solution that also helps maintain bone structure.

What is a dental bridge?
Dental bridges are used when you’re missing one or more teeth and need a stable, long-lasting replacement. Gaps caused by tooth loss can impact your bite, appearance, and overall oral health, making restoration important for both function and aesthetics.
Bridges work by anchoring an artificial tooth to the surrounding natural teeth, restoring your smile’s shape and function. This allows you to chew, speak, and smile with confidence while preventing nearby teeth from shifting out of place. Dental bridges provide a durable, natural-looking solution that helps maintain proper alignment and overall oral health.
