Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are a tooth-shaped “cap” that fits snuggly over the tooth. We can fix teeth with dental crowns by encasing the visible portion of the tooth that lies above the gum line. Crowns mimic the shape, color, strength and appearance of a tooth. At NJ Laser Dentistry, we make our crowns out of high-quality porcelain for a durable and completely natural-looking restoration. Usually, a crown is required to restore the size, shape, strength, or appearance of a tooth in cases of damage, disease or decay.

Depending on the nature of your damaged tooth, a crown might be the best solution for you. This permanent covering to your original tooth will last long and look like your other teeth. In most cases, we can place your crown in two visits. We’re also able to offer a wide range of dental lab services on-site, which means in many cases we can provide same-day restorations such as crowns and veneers.

Bridges And Partials

If you have lost one or more teeth, a bridge repair is likely your best option. A bridge is a fake tooth anchored to the teeth on either side and will help improve your bite, and can even prevent jaw issues like TMJ. Bridges are designed to “bridge the gap” between one or more missing teeth and is typically comprised of two or more crowns fused together and attached to the surrounding teeth.

Dental bridges and partial dentures are common ways to replace missing teeth in adults. If teeth that have been lost are not replaced, the remaining teeth can tip, drift, or extrude into the empty spaces, causing both aesthetic and functional problems within your mouth. If you have missing teeth, contact us to schedule a consultation for dental bridges and partials to determine if these options are right for you.
