About this service

Restoring More Than Just a Tooth.

Crowns and bridges can restore teeth that need more support than a simple repair can provide. A crown can protect and rebuild a weakened or damaged tooth, while a bridge may be used to replace certain missing teeth and restore function to your smile.

We’ll explain why a crown or bridge may be recommended, review other options when appropriate and walk you through what to expect so you can make an informed decision about your care.

How Crowns & Bridges Can Help

What to Expect with a Crown

Crown treatment typically involves preparing the tooth, placing a temporary restoration when needed and returning for the final crown after it has been created for your smile. We’ll explain each step before treatment begins and let you know what to expect based on your individual needs.

Your comfort matters here.

Restorative treatment can feel like a big step, especially if you are already nervous about dental care. We’ll explain your treatment before we begin, answer your questions and help you feel as comfortable as possible throughout your visit. Nitrous oxide, commonly called laughing gas, is available for certain patients and procedures when appropriate.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Crowns may be recommended when a tooth is significantly damaged, decayed, weakened or needs a more complete restoration.

Nitrous oxide is available at Cole Family Dentistry. Ask whether it is appropriate for your procedure, health history and comfort needs.
