Do You Need A Dental Crown Or A Bridge To Repair Your Tooth?
Custom Dental Crown
Get A New Custom Crown If You’ve Got A Seriously Damaged Tooth
Repair a damaged tooth with a crown when fillings can’t be used to restore it. Custom dental crowns look exactly the same as natural teeth, and are just as sturdy.
To attach one, the existing tooth structure is trimmed down to provide a stable anchor for the crown, and then it’s cemented on top.
Dental Bridge
Consider A Dental Bridge If You’re Missing One Or More Teeth
A dental bridge is a solution for missing teeth that is more affordable than dental implants. To attach one, the missing tooth’s neighbours are shaved down to become anchors for the bridge.
The bridge, which is made up of 3 or more artificial custom teeth that are joined together, is then bonded to the anchors, seamlessly filling the gap that the missing tooth left.
Why Is It So Bad To Leave Gaps In Your Mouth From Missing Teeth?
- Missing teeth can cause immediate problems with basic activities like eating and speaking that may worsen with time.
- Leaving empty spaces due to tooth loss or decay can lead to additional health concerns & additional bone loss
- Missing a tooth could lead to the shifting of neighbouring teeth, resulting in problems with chewing and joint function.
- When there are empty spaces in your mouth from missing teeth, your face may look sunken and unnatural. Fixing the missing teeth can restore the shape of your face and mouth.
- The loss of a front tooth, or a tooth that is visible when you open your mouth, is an esthetic concern, making many people self conscious about their smiles.

Dr Lindsay Flumerfelt
General Dentist
Being able to see the “behind-the-scenes” action when I was working in various clinics made me fall in love with dentistry and decide to pursue and obtain my DDS from UBC. Now, I am a member of British Columbia Dental Association and the Vancouver and District Dental Society.
A smile really can radiate confidence. I love that in a single visit, I can change my patients’ attitudes about themselves and, in a way, change their lives. I get to know each and every one of my patients, to make sure that I know their needs and concerns thoroughly.
