DENTAL CROWNS AND BRIDGES

PERMANENT DENTAL CROWNS & BRIDGES THUNDER BAY - LIFETIME TOOTH REPLACEMENT SOLUTION

Westfort Family Dental specializes in comprehensive crown restorations to replace failing fillings and deteriorated crowns, restoring both function and aesthetics to achieve optimal oral health. Our proven techniques are particularly effective for treating fractured, damaged, or structurally compromised teeth where sufficient healthy tooth structure remains for crown retention.

​

Our crown and bridges procedures deliver exceptional longevity. This represents one of the most durable solutions available in restorative dentistry. The treatment protocol typically requires two appointments: initial preparation and impression-taking, followed by final crown cementation. During the interim period, patients receive a temporary crown for aesthetic coverage and comfort. We utilize premium zirconia crowns and bridges, which offer superior strength and exceptional aesthetic properties, providing the most natural-looking and durable restoration available in modern dentistry.

​

Westfort Family Dental offers comprehensive dental bridge solutions as an effective treatment option for replacing missing teeth. Dental bridges are fixed prosthetic appliances that utilize pontics (artificial replacement teeth) supported by abutment teeth on either side of the edentulous space. These restorations can be fabricated as fixed bridges (permanently cemented).

​

WHY DO WE NEED A BRIDGE?

Tooth replacement therapy is clinically imperative as missing teeth compromise essential oral functions including chewing, phonetics, and facial support and most importantly aesthetics. Untreated tooth loss results in facial collapse, accelerated aging appearance, and increased risk of periodontal pathology due to altered plaque control and bacterial colonization patterns.
