SMILE TRANSFORMATION
Different patients have different dental needs and aesthetic goals. Dental crowns and bridges are dental restorations that are used to replace teeth. At Boutique Dental, using a dental crown or bridge, we can restore a damaged tooth, improve a tooth’s appearance, and protect the health of your mouth.
RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY
A dental crown covers the entire visible portion of the tooth above the gum line and is the most durable, natural-looking, and comfortable option in restorative dentistry. A dental crown restores the look of the tooth, as well as restores its strength and functionality. A crown can be made of porcelain, gold, or resin and is bonded to the tooth.

THE PROCESS
Before a dental crown or bridge can be placed, the tooth must be reduced in size to make room for restoration. The dentist may reshape the tooth by filing it down or using dental bonding.
Next, impressions are taken of the teeth, and a restoration model is made. The dentist will place a temporary restoration over the prepared tooth to protect it while the permanent restoration is being completed. The impressions are sent to a dental lab where the repair will be fabricated. Once the restoration is finished, the dentist will place it over the prepared tooth and check for proper fit, bite, and appearance.
