Porcelain, or zirconia crown, or a bridge can restore the tooth to function, anesthetics, or also if it’s a bridge, it can replace a missing tooth. It gives them their function back and the ability to chew. When you’re missing teeth, it can affect… The position of all of your teeth can change based on that missing tooth space. So it definitely keeps you from having issues like that and then gives you that tooth back so you’re able to chew and function normally.

We want to help you enjoy a better quality of life. Dr. Wilburn is a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry, so she has the skills necessary to get your smile back in shape and help you bite and chew your favorite foods again. Plus, she will use an intraoral scanner to take digital impressions so that you don’t have to deal with any unpleasant goop in your mouth.
You never have to feel nervous about any smile repair, as you have the option of receiving dental sedation. You can choose laughing gas or an oral sedative.
Below are some of the ways we can use a crown or bridge:
- Crown for Tooth Repair – We’ll cap your damaged tooth to strengthen it and help you avoid further problems with it.
- Standard Bridge – A traditional bridge fills in the gap left behind by one or more missing teeth, anchoring to your other teeth.
- Implant-Crown Combination – To replace a missing tooth, we’ll attach a crown to a dental implant that has been placed in your jaw.
- Implant-Supported Bridge – While similar to a traditional bridge, this bridge anchors to at least two dental implants.
