Restore your smile with crowns or bridges

Crowns are protective caps placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength. They are commonly used to repair broken, weakened, or severely decayed teeth. Bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth to neighboring teeth or implants, restoring both function and appearance.

Why might you need a crown or bridge?

You may need a crown or bridge if you experience:

  • A broken, chipped, or severely worn-down tooth

  • Discoloration that doesn’t respond to whitening

  • A weak or fractured tooth at risk of breaking

  • A tooth with a large filling or new decay

  • Pain while chewing due to cracks in a tooth

  • A missing tooth that affects your bite, speech, or confidence

  • A root canal-treated tooth that needs protection

Spokane Family Dental’s Approach

We use the latest materials and techniques to ensure your restoration is strong, beautiful, and long-lasting. Our crowns and bridges are crafted from high-quality porcelain, including Zirconia and IPS e.max, for unmatched durability and aesthetics. We also offer CEREC same-day crowns for a convenient, one-visit solution.

The benefits of crowns and bridges

  • Restores function – Chew and speak comfortably again

  • Strengthens teeth – Prevents further damage and decay

  • Natural appearance – Custom-designed to blend seamlessly with your smile

  • Long-lasting durability – With proper care, can last 20+ years

  • Prevents shifting – Keeps surrounding teeth from moving out of place

The treatment process

For crowns:

  1. We prepare the tooth by removing decay and shaping it for the crown.

  2. Impressions are taken to create a custom fit. A temporary crown is placed while your permanent crown is crafted.

  3. At your final visit, the crown is bonded securely in place.

For bridges:

  1. The teeth on either side of the missing tooth are reshaped.

  2. Impressions are taken to create a bridge that fits seamlessly.

  3. Once ready, the bridge is cemented in place for a strong, natural-looking restoration.

How to care for your crown or bridge

With proper care, your restoration can last for decades. Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing daily, flossing, and visiting your dentist regularly. Avoid using your teeth as tools, and if you grind your teeth at night, a custom night guard can help protect your restoration.
