Crowns & Bridges
Restore Strength, Function, and Confidence to Your Smile
At Emerald Dental Care, we offer custom crowns and bridges to restore damaged or missing teeth. Whether you’ve experienced decay, trauma, or tooth loss, these solutions are designed to look natural, feel comfortable, and last for years.
Restorative Dentistry
A dental crown is a protective “cap” placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, size, and function. Crowns are often used after root canals, large fillings, or fractures.
A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth. It typically consists of one or more artificial teeth (pontics) anchored to the surrounding natural teeth or crowns.
