Crowns and Bridges are dental prosthetic solutions securely affixed to existing teeth or implants. Crowns primarily encase or “cap” a compromised tooth, providing protection and reinforcement. On the other hand, bridges span the spaces created by the absence of one or more teeth, effectively filling those gaps for functional and aesthetic purposes.
We at Brockton Family Dental take great pleasure in providing extensive Crown & Bridge services in Ontario to improve and restore your smile’s appearance and functionality. Our experienced team utilizes advanced techniques and materials to solve missing or damaged teeth effectively.
