Crowns are a great way to protect and preserve a tooth when there is just too much tooth missing to do a filling. Bridges are used to replace missing teeth or to splint several teeth together for stability. The type of materials used is dependant on where in your mouth the tooth is, how much force it will take, and how much space is needed. Whatever the materials used you can be assured that we use only the best materials. We never have your crowns made outside the United States where harmful metals may be included in the making of your restoration. In fact we use local labs where we have more control and shorter turn-around times. The aesthetics of each tooth is a primary concern and Dr. Pfab and Dr. Raika are expert at creating the most beautiful smile possible.
