Crowns & Bridges
When a tooth is damaged or weakened, a crown can restore its strength and appearance. A crown is a cap placed over the tooth to protect and restore it to its natural shape. They can be made from durable, tooth-colored materials or metal, depending on your needs and aesthetic preferences. If a tooth is missing, a bridge can fill the gap, restoring chewing function and proper pronunciation. Bridges attach to neighboring teeth or implants to “bridge” the space.
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings restore and repair minor cracks or decay in your teeth. There are two common types: silver amalgam fillings, which are durable and long-lasting, and composite fillings, made from tooth-colored resin for a natural, pleasing appearance. At Golden Smile Dental, your dentist will review all options with you and help determine the best treatment to restore both the health and appearance of your teeth.
