Crowns & Bridges

Restore Damaged Teeth and Bridge the Gaps in Your Smile

What Are Dental Crowns and Bridges?

Dental crowns and bridges are two of the most reliable and commonly used restorative treatments in dentistry. A crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a damaged tooth to restore its strength, shape, and appearance. A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to the crowns on adjacent teeth. At Sierra Springs Dental in Airdrie, we use high-quality porcelain and ceramic materials to craft restorations that blend naturally with your smile.

When You Might Need a Crown or Bridge

Crowns Are Recommended For:

  • Teeth weakened by extensive decay
  • Cracked or fractured teeth
  • Teeth after root canal therapy
  • Large fillings that need reinforcement
  • Cosmetic improvement of misshapen teeth
  • Supporting a dental bridge

Bridges Are Recommended For:

  • Replacing one or more missing teeth
  • Preventing remaining teeth from shifting
  • Restoring your bite and chewing ability
  • Maintaining natural facial shape
  • Distributing bite forces evenly
  • Patients who are not candidates for implants

Benefits of Crowns and Bridges

Reliable restorations that protect your teeth and complete your smile.

Strength and Protection

Crowns encase the entire visible portion of a damaged tooth, restoring its strength and protecting it from further fracture or decay.

Natural Appearance

Modern porcelain and ceramic crowns and bridges are custom-crafted to match the colour, shape, and translucency of your natural teeth for a seamless result.

Long-Lasting Durability

With proper care, crowns and bridges can last 10 to 15 years or longer, providing a reliable, long-term restoration for your smile.

Restore Full Function

Crowns and bridges restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile comfortably, eliminating the functional limitations caused by damaged or missing teeth.

Prevent Further Damage

By covering a weakened tooth or filling a gap left by missing teeth, crowns and bridges prevent shifting, bite problems, and additional dental issues.

Comfortable Treatment

Our team ensures a comfortable experience with local anesthesia and gentle techniques. Sedation options are available for anxious patients.
