Crowns and Bridges

At Providence Dental Care, we offer high-quality crowns and bridges in Providence, SA, to restore damaged, weakened or missing teeth with strength, precision and long-lasting protection. Our restorations are crafted from durable, natural-looking materials that are meant to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth—designed to help maintain a functional, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing smile.

In addition to crowns and bridges, we provide inlays and onlays, which offer a conservative approach to repairing teeth that require more support than a standard filling can provide. Whether you’re dealing with a fractured tooth, significant decay or a gap left by a missing tooth, our team delivers tailored solutions designed to meet your unique needs.

Dental Crowns: Complete Coverage and Protection

A dental crown is a custom-made 'cap' that fits over a weak, damaged or heavily restored tooth. Crowns are used when a tooth is no longer strong enough to function on its own or when its structure needs full coverage for protection.

Crowns are commonly recommended for:

Teeth weakened by decay or large fillings
Cracked or fractured teeth
Teeth after root canal treatment
Severely worn or broken teeth
Cosmetic improvements such as reshaping or colour correction

Our crowns are made from high-performing, tooth-coloured materials that mimic natural enamel. They aim to restore full function, enhance appearance and help prevent future damage.

Benefits of Crowns, Bridges, Inlays and Onlays

Treatments like crowns, bridges, inlays and onlays are designed to reinforce weakened teeth, replace gaps and rebuild proper chewing ability. With durable materials and precise craftsmanship, these restorations can help protect your smile while supporting everyday comfort and function. Here are some benefits.

Strengthens and Protects Damaged Teeth

Crowns, inlays and onlays aim to strengthen teeth weakened by decay, fractures or large fillings. By covering or replacing compromised areas, these restorations stabilise the tooth and prevent further damage.

Restores Proper Chewing and Bite Function

Missing or damaged teeth can make eating uncomfortable and affect your bite alignment over time. Crowns can restore shape and structure to worn or broken teeth, while bridges replace missing teeth to fill gaps and maintain even spacing.

Natural-Looking, Long-Lasting Results

Modern crowns, bridges, inlays and onlays are crafted from durable, tooth-coloured materials that blend seamlessly with surrounding teeth. They mimic the look and feel of natural enamel, aiming to provide a smooth, lifelike appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I consider getting a crown or bridge?

Patients may wish to discuss crowns or bridges with a dentist if you have teeth that are weakened, damaged or missing. These restorations can help maintain the function of your bite, support surrounding teeth and restore the shape of affected teeth.

Common situations where crowns or bridges may be considered include:

Teeth with extensive decay that cannot be restored with a filling
Cracked, chipped or fractured teeth that require additional support
Teeth that have undergone root canal treatment
Missing teeth that could affect bite alignment or neighbouring teeth
Worn teeth due to natural wear or other factors
Teeth with large existing restorations that may compromise stability

Crowns cover individual teeth to provide protection, restore shape and maintain function. Dental bridges can replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent teeth or dental implants. This can help maintain normal chewing and bite alignment.

Your dentist will assess your oral health, discuss options and recommend treatments appropriate for your needs. Early evaluation and care can help support the long-term function of your teeth and bite.

At Providence Dental Care, crowns and bridges are custom-made to suit individual requirements, with materials selected to match your teeth and oral health needs.

Dental Bridges: A Secure Solution for Missing Teeth

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth (or teeth) to the natural teeth on either side of the gap. Bridges not only restore chewing ability and appearance; they also prevent shifting teeth, bite changes and jaw strain that often occur after a tooth is lost.

Bridges are ideal when:

You have one or more missing teeth
You want a fixed, non-removable solution
Implants are not preferred or not suitable

With a bridge, you can regain a stable bite, natural tooth shape and balanced oral function.

Inlays and Onlays: Conservative, Precision Restorations

Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations used when a tooth needs more support than a filling but doesn’t require a full crown. They are fabricated to fit precisely into or onto the tooth and are bonded securely in place.

Inlays fit inside the grooves of the tooth, rebuilding areas damaged by moderate decay or wear.
Onlays, sometimes called 'partial crowns', extend over one or more cusps, restoring a larger portion of the tooth’s surface.

They are ideal for:

Moderate decay
Fractures that don’t involve the entire tooth
Large, failing fillings
Patients wanting a more conservative alternative to crowns

Inlays and onlays preserve more natural tooth structure while offering excellent strength and longevity.
