Crowns and Bridges

Gappy smiles and broken teeth are no one’s idea of fun. So, if you’re troubled by a missing or damaged tooth, look no further than crowns and bridges from Nu Dental.

A crown is a tooth-shaped cap that covers, protects and replaces part of a broken tooth. On the other hand, bridges are a complete replacement for one or more missing teeth that is secured in place by neighbouring teeth.

Both treatments restore strength and structure, look stunningly natural and will give you beautiful, confidence-boosting results in no time. With our bridges and crowns, you can shake off that awkward feeling of embarrassment and enjoy a complete, bright smile.

Why Choose a Bridge or Crown?

icon
Restoring Strength

Crowns can strengthen as well as protect your broken tooth or teeth and in doing so restore function. If you‘ve had to sacrifice your favourite foods because as a result of having a broken or missing tooth, suffer no more. Crowns and bridges reinstate the strength your teeth need to chew and bite. That means that after treatment from Nu Dental, your favourite foods are back on the menu.

Restoring Structure

Crowns and bridges protect your other healthy teeth as well as the damaged ones. Crowns provide structural integrity to your whole smile and can lessen the chances of future damage ultimately lowering the risk of infections, gum disease and other issues. Meanwhile, bridges prevent teeth from crowding into the gap that’s left behind by missing teeth. Both solutions represent long-term, durable protection for your smile.

Crowns and Bridges FAQs

Should I get a crown or a bridge?
If your tooth is damaged but can be saved, we might recommend getting a crown to protect the remaining tooth. If you’ve lost a tooth or your tooth can’t be saved and needs extracting, we might recommend a bridge to restore structure and to make your smile look complete and beautiful again.
Will people notice my crown or bridge?
No, crowns and bridges are designed to be restorative, subtle additions to your smile. They’re coloured specifically to the colour of your teeth and shaped to blend with the rest of your smile.
How long do dental bridges and crowns last?
We encourage you to look after your bridge or crown as part of your natural smile. That means brushing, flossing and regular dental check-ups. When you take good care of your bridge or crown, you might be able to expect it to last a decade or more.
What happens if my dental bridge becomes loose?
If your bridge becomes loose, there are ways that we can easily restore your bridge. We can smoothly remove and repair your bridge and re-fix it into place if it becomes loose. However, it’s rare for bridges to come loose or fall out as they’re made custom to the specifications of your smile meaning they’ll fit snugly and shouldn’t ever fall out.
I’ve damaged my dental crown, what should I do?
You should contact our practice to arrange an appointment and we can assess the damage from there. Sometimes, you might need an emergency appointment if you’re in pain. Other times, we might be able to simply repair and replace your crown.
