Frequently Asked Questions

CROWNS

What Are My Options?
Dental Crowns can be made from all porcelain-to-porcelain and metal to all metal.

• All porcelain: this option gives the most natural look with no metal involved at all.
• Porcelain and metal: this option is proven to be long lasting while still having the benefit of a natural appearance.
• All metal: is most commonly used for the molars where function is the main issue.

Your prosthodontist will walk you through which option is best for you.

BRIDGES

What Is The Difference Between A Bridge And A Removable Partial?
Bridges are fixed in the mouth to fill in spaces of missing teeth. These allow for a more natural feeling for restoration of missing teeth without the maintenance of a removable partial.

Can I Still Eat All My Favorite Foods With A Bridge?
The chewing surfaces are more natural than a partial and are as effective as natural teeth.
