Dental Crowns and Bridges in Jackson, MS
When teeth are damaged, worn, or missing, crowns and bridges provide a strong, seamless solution that lasts. A crown covers and protects a weakened tooth, while a bridge fills the gap left by one or more missing teeth.
Both dental crowns and bridges restore your bite and your confidence with care and precision.
01.
Preparing for a Dental Crown or Bridge
The dental crown or bridge process typically involves two visits. First, the dentist prepares the affected tooth or teeth by reshaping them and taking precise impressions. A temporary crown or bridge is typically placed while your custom restoration is crafted in a dental lab.
During your next visit, the final crown or bridge will be fitted, adjusted for bite and comfort, and permanently cemented.

After Your Dental Crown or Bridge Is Placed
When your finalized crown or bridge is in place, we’ll provide aftercare instructions. In your follow-up appointment, we will evaluate your restoration to ensure it feels and functions normally.
If you have any issues or discomfort, please call our office.
