Crowns and Bridges

Every smile is unique, and sometimes teeth need a little extra support to look and function their best. That’s where dental crowns and bridges in Scottsdale, PA, come in. These restorations are designed to strengthen damaged teeth, replace missing teeth, and restore both function and confidence in your smile. Our team can create a solution tailored specifically to your needs, whether a tooth has been weakened by decay, a root canal, or injury. 

What Are Crowns and Bridges?

• A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fully covers a tooth. Crowns restore strength, protect the tooth from further damage, and help you chew comfortably. 
• Dental bridges replace one or more missing teeth by filling in the gap. They are usually anchored by crowns on the teeth adjacent to the empty space. Bridges restore your bite, prevent surrounding teeth from shifting, and help maintain a natural, even smile.

At Faywest Dental Center, we use porcelain and ceramic materials for these restorations. They’re strong, durable, and designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth so you can have a smile that looks and feels completely natural.

We often recommend crowns or bridges in the following situations:

• A tooth is severely decayed or fractured
• A tooth has been weakened by a root canal
• Large fillings need additional support
• To replace a missing tooth and restore your bite
• To support a dental bridge or top a dental implant

Dental bridges can effectively restore missing teeth while protecting your remaining teeth's alignment.

How the Process Works

Getting a crown or bridge at Faywest Dental Center is straightforward and easy:

• Preparation and Impressions — Your natural teeth are prepared, and precise impressions are taken to create a perfect fit.
• Temporary Restoration — While your final crown or bridge is being crafted, you’ll receive a temporary restoration for comfort and function.
• Final Placement — We fit your custom restoration and cement it in place. We also provide instructions on how to care for your new restoration so it lasts for years.

At Faywest Dental Center, we take a personalized approach to dental restorations. Our team will evaluate your needs, discuss all available options, and create a plan that fits your smile goals.
