Restore the Strength, Function, and Beauty of Your Smile

Damaged or missing teeth can affect your ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Dental crowns and bridges are reliable restorative treatments designed to rebuild weakened teeth and replace missing ones, restoring both the function and appearance of your smile.

At Freemans Bay Dental, we provide custom-made crowns and bridges that are carefully crafted to look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. Using high-quality materials and advanced techniques, we create long-lasting restorations tailored to your individual needs.

Crown

A dental crown is a custom-made restoration designed to cover and protect a damaged, weakened, or heavily restored tooth. Often referred to as a “cap”, a crown fits securely over the entire visible portion of the tooth, restoring its strength, shape, size, and appearance while helping prevent further damage.

Crowns can also be used cosmetically to improve the appearance of your teeth and your smile especially anterior teeth.

At Freemans Bay Dental, we create high-quality, natural-looking crowns that are carefully matched to your surrounding teeth, helping you regain a healthy, functional, and confident smile.

Bridges

Dental bridge literally bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth and is supported by natural teeth or implants. A bridge is a fixed dental restoration used to replace a missing tooth by joining an artificial or false tooth permanently to adjacent tooth.

A traditional bridge joins the natural teeth in the mouth, called abutment teeth, with one or more fake teeth, called pontic teeth. The abutment teeth on either side of the gap receive crowns that anchor the pontic tooth in place. Of all dental bridges, traditional bridges are the most common and are typically made of ceramic or porcelain fused to metal.

Getting a bridge will likely take at least two appointments. At the first appointment, the dentist prepares the teeth and places temporary crowns. Impressions of your teeth are also taken in this appointment and sent to the dental lab for fabrication. The actual bridge is placed at a later visit in nearly 1-2 weeks time once the custom made bridge is back from the dental laboratory.

We offer high quality ceramic bridges so please call us to know your best option for a missing tooth.

Everything You Need to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a dental crown and a dental bridge?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers and protects a damaged or weakened tooth. A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth to the neighbouring teeth or dental implants.
When is a dental crown recommended?
A crown may be recommended if a tooth is severely decayed, cracked, weakened by a large filling, has undergone root canal treatment, or needs cosmetic improvement to restore its shape and appearance.
When is a dental bridge the right option?
A dental bridge is suitable for replacing one or more missing teeth when there are healthy teeth or dental implants available to support the restoration. It helps restore your smile and prevents surrounding teeth from shifting.
How long do crowns and bridges last?
With proper care and regular dental check-ups, crowns and bridges can last 10 to 15 years or longer. Their lifespan depends on your oral hygiene, eating habits, and overall dental health.
Are crowns and bridges natural-looking?
Yes. Modern crowns and bridges are custom-made to match the colour, shape, and size of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and attractive result.
Is the procedure painful?
The treatment is generally comfortable. Your dentist will use a local anaesthetic to numb the area during the procedure, ensuring minimal discomfort. Some mild sensitivity may occur after treatment, but this usually settles quickly.
