Implants, crowns, veneers and cobalt chrome denture
What are they?
A combination of restorations can be used to improve a dentition that has fallen into disrepair. Spaces can be filled by using titanium posts screwed into the bone, which, when restored with a porcelain crown or bridge, imitates the missing natural teeth.
Aged and worn crowns can be revitalised by being replaced with all-porcelain and more modern alternatives. These can also be designed to aid retention and support of a partial denture, providing a simple solution for filling unsightly gaps.
