Crowns & Bridges
All surgical procedures or invasive procedures come with risks. Therefore, you need to consult a certified health practitioner before taking any of these procedures.
A dental crown refers to a temporary custom-made material put over your damaged tooth to protect it. Besides restoring the tooth’s function, a dental crown also ensures a tooth has support and strength. For dental bridges, they complete your smile’s appearance by replacing the missing teeth.
Crowns and bridges are the products of porcelain, known for its durability and natural appearance. The dentists at Northern Beaches Dental Group will always advise on the right treatment plan to follow.
Crowns and bridges are the perfect options if you’re after a healthy and perfect smile. Currently, crowns and bridges are more attractive and longer-lasting because of the updated techniques and materials.
Functions of
Dental Crowns & Bridges
Dental crowns support several applications, and they correct a vast range of issues like:
- Broken tooth fillings
- Teeth weakened as a result of root canal treatment
- Large and unattractive fillings
- Broken and fractured teeth
- Severely decayed teeth
For dental bridges, they replace the missing teeth. A gap can significantly impact your smile. Dental bridges improve your smile appearance by replacing the missing teeth and preventing the neighboring teeth from moving out of their locations and shifting into the gap created by the missing tooth. This issue can result in continued dental conditions.

What Bridge & Dental Crown Treatment is Associated with
Our dentists can place a dental bridge or dental crown in two visits or three visits. After examining your oral health, we will prepare the natural tooth for restoration and then take your teeth’s impressions. The impression represents your natural teeth’s shape, size, and position so that the restoration fits appropriately.
We will forward your teeth’s impression to a specific dental laboratory that takes around two weeks to create the permanent restoration. We will put a temporary crown/bridge on your missing teeth as we wait for the dental lab to prepare the permanent restoration.
After finishing the restoration, we will set up a specific date to revisit our office. We’ll evaluate the finished tooth restoration to ensure it fits correctly and make necessary adjustments during that time. Finally, we will cement the restoration into place permanently.
Before leaving, we will guide you in the right way of taking care of your restoration. Yes, the repair becomes fully functional, but you should give it special care to avoid damages. The new restoration is likely to last for several years if you arrange regular dental cleanings and maintain correct oral hygiene.

Frequently
Asked Questions
We understand that a visit to the dentist can sometimes feel overwhelming — and it’s easy to forget a question or two. If you didn’t get the chance to ask during your appointment and can’t find the answer here, feel free to email us or bring it up at your next visit. Our friendly team is always happy to help.
How often should I visit the dentist?
The needs of each patient is different and may change throughout your lifetime based on your health needs. We will make a recommendation designed to keep your smile looking and feeling its best. For most patients, twice-yearly visits will help you stay on track. Other patients who suffer from conditions such as gum disease may require more frequent dental visits to stay healthy.
Why visit the dentist if I don’t have any problems?
Seeing a dentist on a regular basis is vital to keep teeth in optimal working order and for general good health, even if you aren’t experiencing any pain in your mouth. Cavities don’t begin to hurt until they have become very large. Most people who have had fillings were unaware that they had a cavity until the dentist found it during a check-up. Gum disease also doesn’t tend to hurt either, so it’s important to check it on a regular basis, especially for people who smoke.
What is the recommended dental care I need to have?
For preventing as many dental problems as possible, it is important to have a great oral hygiene routine. The things you need to be focused on are: proper flossing and good teeth brushing technique. If you use the proper techniques for brushing and flossing your teeth, you will go a long way toward protecting your beautiful smile.
When is the right time for my child first visit to the dentist?
Each child is different, so dentists advise that the first appointment be six months after your child’s first baby teeth have all come up. This is usually when they are around 2 to 3 years old. In this first visit, the dentist will check to see that their development (mouth, gums and teeth) is normal and detect any potential problems that can be managed before serious conditions occur.
