Dental Crowns and Bridges in Irving, TX

Restore Your Smile with Durable Crowns and Bridges

Whether a tooth needs repairing or replacing, our team designs restorations that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. We use porcelain, ceramic and metal, so the result is as strong as it is natural looking.

What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown, or “cap”, is a custom-made restoration designed to fit over a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its strength, function and appearance. Whether it is covering a cracked tooth or strengthening one after root canal therapy, a crown gives that tooth long-lasting protection.

When You Might Need a Dental Crown

• Cracked or Fractured Teeth A crown holds a weakened tooth together and protects it from further damage.
• Large Fillings or Decay Where a tooth has extensive decay or a large filling, a crown offers stronger support than the filling alone.
• After Root Canal Treatment Crowns protect teeth that have undergone root canal therapy.
• Cosmetic Enhancements Crowns improve the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth.
• Dental Implants A crown caps a dental implant, restoring both function and aesthetics.

What Is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth. An artificial tooth, called a pontic, is anchored between two crowns placed on the healthy teeth either side, bridging the gap. As well as restoring the look of your smile, a bridge stops neighboring teeth shifting out of place and keeps your bite aligned.

Benefits of a Dental Bridge

• Restored Function Chewing and speaking become easier once the gap left by a missing tooth is filled.
• Enhanced Appearance A bridge fills the gaps in your smile, and with them the reason many patients hold back from smiling at all.
• Prevents Dental Shifting Keeping your remaining teeth in place prevents misalignment and the complications that follow it.
• Preserves Oral Health Replacing a missing tooth helps maintain jawbone health and heads off further problems.

Our team will help you decide whether a crown or a bridge is the right answer, and give you a clear estimate before any treatment begins. We work with a range of insurance plans — see how we handle insurance and financing.

Same-Day Crowns, Start to Finish

We know your time matters, which is why we offer same-day crowns for eligible patients. Our technology lets us design, create and place a custom crown in one visit, with no weeks of waiting for a permanent restoration to come back from the lab.

Benefits of Same-Day Crowns

• Quick Results No temporary crown, and no second and third appointments. For eligible patients
• Custom Fit Digital imaging makes sure your crown fits precisely and matches your natural teeth.
• Durable and Long-Lasting Same-day crowns are made from high-quality materials for lasting protection.

The Crown and Bridge Procedure, Step by Step

Your comfort comes first at every stage. Here is what to expect.

1. Initial Consultation We examine your teeth and take X-rays to determine whether you need a crown or a bridge, talk through every option, and give you a clear estimate of the cost.
2. Tooth Preparation For a crown, the tooth is shaped and any decay or damage removed. For a bridge, the teeth either side are prepared for the crowns that will support it.
3. Impressions If you are not having a same-day crown, we take impressions to create your custom restoration, and fit a temporary crown or bridge while the permanent one is being crafted.
4. Fitting the Crown or Bridge Once your restoration is ready we bond it securely to your teeth, checking the fit and your bite alignment before you leave.

Caring for Your Crowns and Bridges

With proper care, dental crowns and dental bridges last for many years. These four habits do most of the work.

• Brush and Floss Daily Clean around the crown or bridge, and especially along the gumline, to prevent plaque building up.
• Avoid Hard or Sticky Foods Both can damage a crown or a bridge.
• Wear a Night Guard If you grind your teeth at night, a night guard protects your restorations from excessive wear.
• Keep Up Regular Visits Routine check-ups keep your crowns and bridges in excellent condition.
