Rediscover your smile with crowns and bridges

Structural preservation

Durable investment
Our crowns and bridges have an average life of 10 years, which can be extended with proper care.
Crowns
Dental crowns, or caps, are custom-fitted covers that encase a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and aesthetics. Crafted from either porcelain or metal (or a combination of both), crowns are a durable solution for a variety of dental concerns.
- Enhance your looks: Dental crowns seamlessly blend with the look and feel of your natural teeth, giving you a confident and radiant smile.
- Regain your ability to chew: By reinforcing weakened teeth, crowns restore functionality so you can enjoy your favourite hard, crunchy and chewy foods again.
- Protect existing teeth: Made from durable materials overlaid on your existing teeth, crowns offer lasting protection, giving you a reliable investment in your oral health.
Bridges
Dental bridges are designed to fill the gaps created by missing teeth, restoring your natural smile. Comprising one or more artificial teeth, bridges are anchored by crowns on adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Bridges can help people with missing teeth.
- Seamless smile restoration: Dental bridges fill gaps with natural-looking teeth, giving you back your smile without the need for removable dentures.
- Functional wholeness: Beyond cosmetics, bridges restore your ability to chew and speak by distribute force evenly over the whole opposing arch and supporting teeth.
- Preservation of oral health: Dental bridges stabilise adjacent teeth or implants, preventing unwanted tooth drifting and preserving overall bite alignment.
