Revitalise Your Smile with Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges offer options for replacing damaged and missing teeth. These treatments can improve your smile and make your mouth healthier, so you can eat, talk and smile without worries.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice, we offer crowns and bridges for patients who want to protect weakened teeth or replace missing teeth. A crown or bridge can last for many years if it is cared for well.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a cap that is placed onto a weakened tooth to help protect and restore it. If a tooth is chipped, fractured or damaged, placing a crown over it can help the tooth match the rest of your smile.
Porcelain crowns can be made to match your smile, so they do not stand out among your natural teeth. They can include crowns made entirely with porcelain or porcelain bonded to precious metal for added strength.
Different patients benefit from different materials. For example, pure porcelain crowns are often suitable for front teeth, while stronger materials may be preferred for back teeth.

Types of Dental Crowns
There are several types of dental crown made with different materials. The best dental crown material depends on where the crown will sit, your bite and your cosmetic needs.
Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain crowns have a natural look and are often used for front teeth where appearance is important.
Porcelain Bonded to Metal
This option has a metal base, with porcelain applied in layers over the top for a natural look and added strength.
Porcelain and Composite Crowns
These crowns can offer a natural look, although they may not be as strong as porcelain bonded to metal.
Precious Metal Crowns
Gold or palladium crowns can be suitable for back teeth, where they are less visible and strength is important.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are designed to replace one or more missing teeth. They include one or more artificial teeth and are fixed into the mouth using healthy teeth or, in some cases, dental implants.
A dental bridge offers an alternative to removable dentures. Unlike dentures, a bridge is fixed into the mouth and can be cared for alongside your other teeth.
A bridge is created by taking an impression of the teeth either side of the missing tooth or teeth. Crowns are then made for those teeth and joined with an artificial tooth to replace the missing one.
Dental Bridge vs Implant
Another option for replacing missing teeth is dental implants. Dental implants involve placing a titanium post in the jawbone, with an artificial tooth attached to replace the missing tooth.
Dental bridges can offer a more affordable alternative to implants, and the treatment can also take less time. However, implants may also be discussed if they are suitable for your case.
Dental Crown Costs
The cost of dental crown treatment depends on several factors, such as what material the crown or bridge will be made from.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice, private crown treatment is listed from £410 to £580, with partial crowns from £300. With dental plans, patients may save money on crown treatment.
How Dental Crowns Are Made
To fit a dental crown, the tooth is first prepared so it is the right shape to hold the crown. The outer surface of the tooth is removed so that the core remains and a crown can fit over the top.
An impression of the tooth is then sent to the dental lab so that a crown can be made to fit the tooth. The colour of the crown is also matched to your existing teeth.
A temporary crown may be fitted until the permanent crown is ready.
Why Replace Missing Teeth?
Replacing missing teeth is both practical and cosmetic. It can make it easier to eat and talk, while also restoring your smile.
A dental bridge uses crowns to help replace missing teeth in an effective way. Make an appointment with our dentist in Guildford, Surrey, if you are interested in a crown or bridge to restore your smile.
Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Crowns & Bridges
What is a dental crown?
A dental crown is a cap placed over a weakened, damaged or heavily restored tooth. It helps protect the tooth, restore shape and improve appearance.
What is a dental bridge?
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth. It usually uses neighbouring teeth or dental implants for support, with an artificial tooth placed in the gap.
Are porcelain crowns natural-looking?
Yes. Porcelain crowns can be matched to the colour and shape of your natural teeth, making them a popular option for visible teeth.
How long do crowns and bridges last?
Crowns and bridges can last for many years with good oral hygiene, regular dental visits and careful maintenance.
Is a bridge better than an implant?
It depends on your mouth, budget, bone levels and long-term goals. Bridges can be faster and more affordable, while implants may offer a more independent tooth replacement option.
How much does a dental crown cost?
The cost depends on the material and your case. Please visit our fees page or book an examination for a clear treatment estimate.
