Some of the best ways involve using a dental crown or dental bridge. Dr. Martin is highly skilled in placing versatile restorations to help our patients smile with comfort and confidence!
Renew Your Smile With a New Dental Crown
Beautiful restorations are available using modern technology, including intraoral cameras for up-close looks inside your mouth. So there’s no reason to settle for teeth that don’t function properly or that cause embarrassment. Dr. Alex Martin and his team can use crowns and bridges to give you back a complete smile and make it possible to enjoy all your favorite foods again.
Some of the ways our Scottsdale dental team can use a crown or bridge to repair your smile include:
- Crowns for Tooth Repair – If you have a damaged or diseased tooth, we’ll cap it with a custom crown to strengthen the tooth and prevent additional problems with it.
- Standard Fixed Bridge – A traditional bridge will attach to your healthy teeth on either end, filling in smile gaps and giving you back a comfortable bite.
- Implant-Supported Crown – Dr. Martin can replace a missing tooth by attaching a crown to a dental implant that a specialist places in your jaw.
- Implant-Supported Bridge – This sturdy restoration anchors to at least two dental implants, giving you back a complete smile and strong chewing capacity.
- Inlays and Onlays – Sometimes known as half-crowns, these restorations provide more coverage than a filling but less than a full crown.
Our crown and bridge dental restorations are designed to restore your complete, functional smile. With a restoration from Alex Martin, DDS, you can smile with confidence, comfortably eat a wider variety of foods, restore the complete chewing function to your smile, and maintain optimal oral health with a stronger smile that lasts.
