Damaged or missing teeth don’t have to hold you back. With custom crowns and bridges, you can bring back the strength, function, and natural beauty of your smile.

Crowns and Bridges

Smiles are meant to last a lifetime, but teeth sometimes need a little help along the way. If you’ve chipped a tooth on a crunchy snack, lost one to years of wear, or noticed that chewing just isn’t as easy as it used to be, crowns and bridges in Milpitas can restore your smile’s strength and beauty.

At My Milpitas Dentist, Dr. Anthony Yen and Dr. Nicole Chhea use advanced technology, including CEREC same-day crowns, to give you reliable results without the long wait.

Protect, Replace, and Smile Again

Crowns and bridges are like the unsung heroes of dentistry. A crown covers and protects a tooth that’s been weakened, while a bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to neighboring teeth or dental implants. Together, they bring back your ability to chew and speak comfortably, while also reviving the confidence that comes with a complete smile.

And here’s the best part: with CEREC technology, you can walk out with a brand-new crown the very same day! With CEREC same-day crowns in Milpitas, there’s no temporary crown, no second appointment, and no hassle.

Benefits of CEREC Same-Day Crowns

Why wait weeks for a dental crown when you can get it done in just one visit? Our patients love CEREC, and here’s why.

One Appointment Only

Traditionally, crowns took multiple visits with weeks in between. With CEREC, we design, create, and place your crown in a single visit.

Natural Look and Feel

CEREC crowns are milled from high-quality, natural-looking ceramic that matches the shade of your teeth. It'll blend seamlessly and feel natural.

Long-Lasting

Just because it’s fast doesn’t mean it’s flimsy. CEREC crowns are designed to handle years of chewing, smiling, and living life to the fullest.

No Messy Impressions

Say goodbye to the goopy trays of the past. With CEREC, we use digital scans for a precise fit and a more comfortable experience.

Protects Your Tooth Right Away

Because the crown is placed the same day, your tooth is protected immediately. There’s no worrying about a temporary crown breaking or falling off.

Dental Bridges: Filling the Gaps

Missing a tooth or several? A dental bridge can restore your bite and bring balance back to your smile. Anchored by crowns or dental implants, bridges are a stable and attractive way to fill in the spaces left behind. Bridges can make everyday activities, such as chewing steak or speaking clearly, much easier and more comfortable.

Dental Restorations Designed with You in Mind

We understand that for many of our patients, comfort, reliability, and efficiency are just as important as appearance. That’s why our crowns and bridges are created with the latest technology, meticulous attention to detail, and a focus on helping you feel confident every time you smile. At My Milpitas Dentist, we’re here to help you keep enjoying the foods you love, the conversations that matter, and the confidence of a complete smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I care for my dental crown or bridge?

Proper care for your dental crown or bridge is essential to keep it lasting and maintain your oral health. Crowns and bridges are strong, but they still require attention to prevent damage, decay, or gum issues around the restoration.

Maintain Excellent Oral Hygiene

Gently brush your teeth twice daily. Floss daily and be sure to clean around the crown or bridge carefully. Consider using a floss threader or interdental brush to reach under bridges.

Watch What You Eat

Avoid chewing hard foods like ice, nuts, or hard candies on your crown or bridge, as these can cause cracks or loosen the restoration. Limiting sticky or extremely sugary foods can also help prevent decay on surrounding teeth.

Schedule Regular Dental Visits

Routine checkups and professional cleanings help ensure your crown or bridge stays in top condition. Your dentist can check for wear, fit, and any early signs of gum disease.

Protect Against Teeth Grinding

If you grind or clench your teeth at night, talk to your dentist about a night guard. This helps prevent damage to both natural teeth and your restorations.

Your crowns and bridges can last for many years, helping to maintain your smile's health and confidence.
