Crowns & Bridges

Dental Crowns and Bridges

Crowns (sometimes referred to as caps) are used to improve the appearance of teeth or to restore badly broken down teeth when there is insufficient tooth to hold a filling. Our crowns are made from the latest aesthetic materials: we may choose zirconia, fused ceramics or a combination of both depending upon the specific needs of the treatment. A bridge is a casting or computer milled prosthesis used to replace a missing tooth and is attached to teeth next to the gap, by using adhesive attachments or other crowns

The latest metal free crowns and bridges provide very life-like aesthetics and can transform a smile while strengthening the teeth at the same time. A crown is provided in several stages. After a tooth has been prepared, a temporary crown will be put in place while a dental laboratory manufactures the crown. Temporary crowns are made from a tooth coloured plastic and are designed to last for a short period of time. These crowns can be made to match the proposed final colour and shape of the new teeth. This way you can assess the bite and your new smile at home before the porcelain crowns are made.

    Paul T
  • “I’ve been with Dovetail Dental since it began and am managing to overcome my lifelong fear of dentists. (I’m 77 years old.) After several implants and other treatments I’m now happy with my teeth and grateful for the care and kindness I have received from all members of staff. After decades of neglecting my teeth I was initially attracted by the availability of IV sedation. Subsequent treatments have continued to soothe away my fears, leading to a more positive attitude on my part. Thank you to everyone at Dovetail.”

    Patricia Wressell
  • “Amazing job! And what a difficult job for Rob and Rachel. I can honestly say no one apart from home and work (who knew all about my decision to have my top teeth replaced) realise my teeth belong to the dedicated team work of both these two new friends of mine. I have after check visits and feel part of the Dovetail family. Thank you all for keeping my huge smile exactly the same and enabling me to still talk with exactly the same speed. If in doubt believe me trust the company to help you.”

I couldn’t be happier with my implants, they have literally changed my life for the better, I can’t thank Rob and Kelly and the rest of the staff enough for helping me through this transformation. I’d highly recommend Dovetail to anyone looking for first class dental care.”
