Crowns and Veneer Restorations

Crowns and Bridges

Nevins Dental Center – 3 Center Plaza, Suite 310 Boston, MA 02108

Crown and veneer restorations are a great solution if you have damaged, decayed or imperfections. Crowns restore and strengthen a tooth, while veneers enhance the appearance of your smile by improving shape and colour. If you have missing teeth, bridges may be recommended to fill gaps and restore function. Crowns and bridges are “fixed” restorations, meaning they are securely cemented in place for a long-lasting result. In some cases, dental implants combined with crowns can be used as an
alternative to bridges.

About Crown and Veneer Restorations

About Crown and Veneer Restorations

If you have damaged, worn, or missing teeth, crowns, veneers, and bridges can provide effective solutions to restore your smile and improve your oral health. Crowns are used to strengthen and rebuild a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, function, and appearance, while veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to enhance the colour, shape, and overall look of your teeth. Bridges may also be recommended in cases where one or more teeth are missing, helping to fill gaps and maintain proper alignment.

These treatments are designed to be long-lasting and are securely bonded or fitted to your teeth, offering both durability and a natural appearance. Whether you’re restoring function or improving aesthetics, crowns and veneers in particular are popular choices for achieving a healthy, confident smile.

By choosing the right restorative or cosmetic treatment, you not only improve how your smile looks but also help protect your teeth from further damage or misalignment. Our team will carefully assess your needs and create a personalised treatment plan to ensure the most comfortable and effective outcome for you.

Although his staff are also terrific, I credit Dr. Nevins here. As a professional myself, I recognize others who love what they do and are working at the top of their game. Marc Nevins is an exceptional doctor and professional. I recommend his practice highly.

Smile Transformation Success Story

Smile Transformation Success Story

At our practice, we recently helped a patient restore their smile after facing a challenging dental issue involving a periodontal infection and a root fracture. These conditions required the placement of a dental implant to fully restore the health and appearance of their teeth.

The comprehensive treatment plan included:

  • Extraction and Bone Graft: To prepare the area for implant placement.
  • Implant Placement and Soft Tissue Graft: Ensuring stability and a natural appearance.
  • Provisional Implant-Supported Crown: Temporary restoration during the healing process.
  • Final Implant-Supported Crown: The beautiful, permanent solution designed by Dr. Mitchell.

We are thrilled with the results, and the patient is enjoying their stunning new smile.

We provided emergency care with root canal treatments on the upper central incisors. Dr. Nevins performed an immediate implant for the right lateral incisor and carried out a crown lengthening procedure on the palatal side of the right central incisor to ensure proper restoration. Dr. Mitchell then placed a provisional bridge to maintain function and esthetics during healing

After a four-month healing period, crowns were placed on the central incisors, and the implant for the right lateral incisor was finalised

Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Crowns and Bridges

Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Crowns and Bridges

WHO NEEDS CROWNS AND BRIDGES?

If you require restorations that are too large to fill, you can benefit from crowns. If you’re missing teeth but are not a candidate for implants or want another restorative option, you can choose a tooth-supported bridge instead. Our team will work with you to determine the best course of treatment for your individual case.

HOW LONG DO CROWNS AND BRIDGES LAST?

Outcomes for these restorations vary depending on multiple factors, including the underlying tooth’s health, patient hygiene and the general dental condition. Biological factors can lead to decay and trauma can damage the restorations. Even so, your well-done crown or bridge can last for more than 10 years.

CAN YOU WHITEN CROWNS OR BRIDGES?

No. Once the color is selected, it won’t change. You can polish some stains from porcelain, but you can’t use chemicals to change the color. If you want to whiten your teeth, we recommend doing so before selecting your porcelain shade. We can always match the porcelain to the rest of your teeth before installing a restoration.
