Porcelain Dental Crowns
When the size of a filling required exceeds a certain size or structural ability to support the tooth, it may require a crown (cap). There are many different types of materials used for these restorations, but Dr. St. Clair always uses what he feels will give the best-looking and longest-lasting result. He welcomes discussion of these materials for your particular situation if you’re interested. We use only the highest quality – American – dental labs. There is a difference. Below are before and after photos of crowns done by Dr. St. Clair.
Porcelain Bridges
A bridge is a fixed (non-removable) restoration used to replace one or multiple teeth. This shouldn’t be confused with a partial denture, which is removable. A bridge is attached with crowns on teeth adjacent to spaces and is dependent on the health and longevity of the teeth to which it is attached. Bridges are not placed as much anymore because of dental implants, but they’re still useful in some situations.
