Dental Crowns & Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges are restorative treatments used to repair damaged teeth or replace missing teeth. A crown can strengthen and protect a tooth that has been weakened by decay, cracks, or a large filling, while a bridge can fill the space left by one or more missing teeth. These restorations are custom-made to blend with your natural smile and restore everyday function. At Sonshine Family Dental, we focus on creating durable, comfortable results that support your long-term oral health.

About This Service

Dental crowns

A crown (or cap) is a dental restoration, typically made of porcelain, that our dentists may place to restore a damaged, aesthetically imperfect, or root canal-treated tooth to an ideal shape and size. Crowns are color-matched to your existing teeth for a natural appearance and usually require two visits to complete.

Gold onlays

Gold onlays, also known as three-fourths crowns, are placed when a full crown is not needed. They are a more conservative treatment that requires less removal of healthy tooth structure. Custom designed in a dental lab, gold onlays strengthen the tooth, preserve natural structure, and protect against future damage. We use gold for its strength and because it is gentle on the opposing tooth.

Dental bridges

Dental bridges use crowns placed over the two teeth adjacent to a gap to anchor an artificial tooth. Bridges are created using tooth-colored materials for a natural result and typically require several appointments to complete.

If you are missing any teeth or your teeth have been damaged, contact us to schedule a consultation in Avon, Indiana.
