for Cosmetic Restoration
Crown
Crowns for Single
Tooth Replacement
Crowns are designed to protect the teeth and are created to match the color of your tooth enamel. You may need a crown if you have a misshapen tooth, a tooth that is worn down, or have received a root canal. Crowns are also effective for restoring teeth to their natural shape and size.
​
Crowns are typically placed in two visits, as we first need to prepare the tooth structure and ensure the root of the tooth is healthy enough to support the restoration. We will take dental impressions and fit you with a temporary crown to wear while the permanent crown is fabricated. Once the permanent crown is received from the lab, it is cemented in place.
Dental Bridge for Multiple Tooth Replacement
Dr. Kim may recommend a dental bridge if you have a missing tooth between two healthy teeth. A bridge is typically performed in two office visits, as we will first need to prepare the adjacent teeth to support the bridge. A bridge is usually comprised of two or more crowns that are fused together. Once complete, the permanent bridge is cemented in place and we will check your bite to ensure optimal placement and comfort.
We offer affordable crowns and bridges in our practice. Learn more about cosmetic dentistry in Vancouver by scheduling your consultation with Dr. Kim today!
