Bridges
A dental bridge is a reliable option for replacing one or more missing teeth by “bridging” the gap and restoring both function and appearance. It typically consists of a replacement crown supported by crowns placed on the neighbouring healthy teeth, known as abutments. Most standard bridges use three crowns—one to replace the missing tooth and two to anchor it securely.
Dental bridges enhance the look of your smile, maintain proper bite alignment, prevent teeth from shifting, and support clear speech and efficient chewing. For multiple missing teeth, extended bridges can be designed to provide a strong, durable restoration tailored to your needs.
Bonded Porcelain/ PFM (Porcelain Fused to Metal)
Western Crown and Bridge is highly skilled in the manufacturing of Bonded Porcelain/ PFM restorations, delivering consistently accurate, well‑fitting, and long‑lasting results through expert craftsmanship and advanced laboratory techniques.
Bonded Porcelain/PFM restorations pair a strong metal substructure with a natural‑looking porcelain surface to create durable, aesthetic crowns and bridges. The metal provides strength and stability, while the porcelain delivers a lifelike appearance, making PFM a reliable choice for both function and cosmetics. Our product range includes:
