CERAMIC CROWNS + BRIDGES

 

What Are Ceramic Crowns And Bridges?

Ceramic crowns and bridges are an excellent option for anyone looking to replace compromised or missing teeth. Unlike other crowns, ceramic crowns contain absolutely no metal, resulting in a safer, more natural looking tooth restoration. Ceramic crowns can be described as a tooth-like-cap that mimics the appearance of your neighboring teeth. Ceramic crowns are ideal for patients with a large cavity or extreme trauma to a single tooth. On the other hand, ceramic bridges correct multiple missing teeth through a series of prosthetic teeth. These prosthetics are bonded to the natural neighboring teeth, replicating your original smile. Whether you need a dental crown or bridge, Dr. Lowry offers high-quality ceramic restorations that are custom to you and designed to last for years!  

Why Would You Need A Ceramic Crown?

Ceramic crowns may be recommended if you have a tooth that has been compromised in some way. This can include cracks, stains, chips or extreme decay damage. Ceramic crowns offer a beautiful, natural, long-lasting result. Dr. Lowry uses modern, CAD CAM technology, meaning the procedure can be completed within one visit! Your ceramic crown will be seamlessly matched to your natural tooth color, allowing for a beautiful, comfortable and functional smile. 

Why Would You Need A Ceramic Bridge?

A ceramic bridge could be the best fit for you if multiple teeth are missing. A ceramic bridge is designed to bridge the gap where your natural teeth once were. Dr. Lowry beautifully matches the ceramic bridge to your natural teeth, taking every detail into account. Choosing a ceramic bridge after tooth loss means that your smile can regain its overall health, functionality and natural beauty.
