Sometimes damaged teeth can not be repaired with fillings. Fortunately, we offer dental crown options right here in Wilmington.
Dental bridges are fixed dental prosthetics used to replace a missing tooth. Bridges are made of two parts: the false tooth and supporting crowns. The false tooth, which looks like a natural tooth, fills in the gap left by the missing one. The supporting crowns are attached to natural teeth on either side of the space and act as anchors for the false tooth.
Dental bridges are usually made from porcelain or metal alloys, but they can also be made from other materials such as porcelain fused to metal or resin-bonded ceramic material.
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are bonded to the front of teeth. Porcelain veneers can be used to improve the appearance of a tooth by changing its color, shape, size, or length. Porcelain veneers can also be used to close gaps between teeth and cover discolored or damaged teeth.
The process is referred to as “veneers” because it covers up imperfections on the surface of your teeth.
