Dental crowns are a type of restorative procedure used when the existing crown of the tooth has been damaged and needs to be reproduced.
A crown is a tooth shaped "cap" to replace the structure that was lost, they can also help reduce the chance of a tooth fracturing.
Some circumstances where a crown tends to be a great option include; restoring extensive decay affecting a single tooth or multiple teeth, a cracked or fractured tooth, a tooth which has had a root canal performed, a crown placed on an implant.

Bridges are a great option for patients that need to replace missing teeth.
A bridge uses the teeth on either side of the missing tooth as support posts, to allow a tooth to be made in between.
The dentist prepares the surrounding teeth as if they are receiving a crown, in order to have a support system for the bridge.
A bridge is then fabricated to fit the teeth with an added tooth for the missing space.
The dentist may use gold alloys, porcelain bonded to metal, or an all ceramic material.
The choice of material depends on patient preferences, requirements for strength, wear, and/or esthetics.

Dental implants are an artificial tooth root that can be used to create a replacement tooth for patients who have suffered from tooth loss.
In natural tooth development, the roots form and interact with your jawbone to provide necessary tooth stability.
Fortunately, we have learned a way to mimic this process with dental implants.
Dental implants are crafted out of a special titanium alloy that can fuse directly to your bone in a similar way during a process called 'osseointegration.' Implants are a great replacement option, because they not only restore the tooth crown but also the root.

Veneers are a dental procedure in which the dentist covers the front portion (visible area) of the tooth with a tooth formed shell.
Veneers are usually only done to the part of the teeth that are visible when talking or smiling.
At the first appointment the dentist prepares the teeth, impressions are taken, and the teeth are given a temporary covering.
A short time after the veneers are returned from the laboratory.
The temporaries are removed and the new veneers are bonded to the teeth.
