Your team at Hilltown Dental might recommend a crown, which is used to entirely cover or "cap" a damaged tooth. These restorations strengthen the remaining tooth structure while also improving its appearance, shape or alignment. Natural-looking crowns can also be used on top of implants to create a tooth-like shape. We offer a variety of materials including porcelain which can easily be matched to your natural tooth color.
Crowns have a variety of uses including:
Dental bridges can replace multiple missing teeth. A bridge is supported either by healthy teeth on either side of the gap or by an implant. If your natural teeth are used, crowns will be placed for additional support. A bridge is ideal for closing small gaps in the oral structure, eliminating the need for dentures.
Prior to the installation of a crown or bridge, it is vital for you to discuss your expectations with us. We will perform a careful assessment of your teeth, your bite, your gums and jawbone.
Our team will confirm your dental benefits to help you get the most from your insurance. We will also file all claims and forms as a courtesy to you. If you require additional assistance, we offer a full range of payment options and affordable financing plans to help you cover all treatment costs.
