The options at a glance

Crown

For a tooth that is too badly damaged for a filling.

Bridge

For a missing tooth, with support from the neighbouring teeth.

Implant

An artificial root in the jawbone; the neighbouring teeth remain untouched.

Crown: protection for a weakened tooth

A crown is a precisely fitting cap of porcelain or zirconia that is placed over a prepared tooth. A crown is the appropriate solution when a tooth is too badly damaged for a filling, for example after a large restoration or a root canal treatment. The colour and shape are matched to your own teeth.

Bridge: closing the gap of a missing tooth

If a tooth is missing, a bridge can fill the open space. The bridge is attached to the neighbouring teeth and is therefore fixed in the mouth; you will hardly notice it in everyday use. A bridge is particularly suitable when the neighbouring teeth would themselves benefit from a crown.

Implant: a new root

An implant is an artificial root of titanium that is placed in the jawbone. After a healing period, a crown, bridge or click-on denture is attached to it. The great advantage: the neighbouring teeth remain untouched and the jawbone continues to be loaded and is therefore preserved. Implant treatment calls for a careful assessment of the jawbone and gums; where needed, we work together with an experienced implantologist.

What does the process look like?

  1. Assessment: examination of the tooth, the jawbone and the gums, with X-rays
  2. Plan & estimate: the options side by side, with a clear estimate in advance
  3. Treatment: in one or more appointments, in cooperation with the dental laboratory
  4. Aftercare: check-ups and dental hygiene to keep the result healthy for a long time
Healthy gums are a condition for any durable restoration, certainly for implants. That is why professional aftercare is part of the process.
Frequently asked questions

Questions about this treatment

What is the difference between a crown, a bridge and an implant?

A crown restores a damaged tooth, a bridge closes a gap with support from the neighbouring teeth, and an implant is an artificial root onto which a crown or bridge is placed.

How long does an implant last?

With good oral care and regular check-ups, implants often last many years; healthy gums are essential for this.
