The team helps patients from in and around Everett, Washington, to restore and protect their teeth and oral health with crowns and bridges from our practice at Sunrise Dental of Everett.
Crowns are dental treatments used to repair and protect teeth by covering the visible part of a broken or damaged tooth. Crowns are often placed on top of dental implants to create a natural-looking artificial tooth. They are also used to cover a tooth that is not attractive due to staining or damage. Crowns provide a natural-looking protective covering for teeth that are too damaged or decayed to be repaired with a traditional filling. These dental installations protect teeth from further damage and can improve the appearance of a tooth if it is cracked, stained, broken, or chipped. Porcelain crowns are often preferred because they are tinted to match the neighboring teeth. Crowns are meant to be long-lasting. If your crown becomes loose or damaged, the team can repair or replace the crown.
Crowns are used for a variety of cosmetic and restorative dental services. Some patients choose to cap their teeth with crowns to provide a uniform appearance, while others need crowns to protect and support their teeth. Some of the conditions that crowns are used to treat include:

Bridges are secured to the natural neighboring teeth or dental implants if the patient has had these installed. The team applies bridges to address a variety of dental concerns including:
