Crowns and Bridges

Dental Crowns and Bridges Hervey Bay

A crown, or cap, is a restoration that is placed on top of a tooth that has minimal tooth structure.

At Gentle Dental Hervey Bay, you are able to receive a new Cerec Crown in just 1 appointment, thanks to the most modern equipment available.

Preparation for a Cerec Crown Treatment includes:
1. Scanning the teeth
2. Digital design of your new tooth
3. Milling this new tooth directly within our clinic
4. Restoring your new Cerec Crown onto the tooth

Some of the most common indications of a crown is loss of tooth structure due to accident, to decay, to prevent fracture and bacterial infection of a root canal treated tooth and to re-shape a tooth for aesthetic purposes.

A bridge will help fill the gap of a missing tooth by having crowns attached on either side of the prosthetic. A bridge prevents the movement of the teeth adjacent to the missing tooth and keep the bite stable.
