Crowns & Bridges in Glasgow

Dental Crowns

A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that covers the visible part of a damaged or weakened tooth.

Crowns may be recommended where a tooth has been significantly damaged, heavily restored or weakened following root canal treatment.

Modern dental ceramics can provide highly natural-looking results.

Materials include:

Porcelain (metal-free)
Porcelain fused to metal for added strength

The Crown Process

The process generally involves:

Assessment and preparation – your tooth is assessed and prepared where necessary.
Impressions or digital scans – information is taken to allow your restoration to be custom-made.
Temporary restoration – where appropriate, a temporary crown may be fitted.
Final fitting – your permanent crown is checked for fit, appearance and bite before being securely fitted.

Crown treatment steps:

1. Tooth preparation
2. Precision impressions
3. Temporary crown fitting
4. Final custom crown placement

Dental Bridges

A dental bridge can be used to replace one or more missing teeth by attaching a replacement tooth to neighbouring supporting teeth or implants, depending on the type of bridge.

Your dentist will explain which options are appropriate for you.
