The restorative side of dentistry explained honestly: what crowns and bridges are, when you genuinely need them, the materials, the procedure, and how to care for them.
What a crown is, when it is the right answer, when it may be too much, and what to ask your dentist.
What a bridge is, the types, when it makes sense, its main drawback, and how it compares with an implant.
The strengths, looks and durability of each material, and how to choose the right one for your tooth.
How a root canal leaves a tooth brittle, why a crown protects it, when it is needed, and what to ask.
Assessment, preparing the tooth, the impression, temporary and final crown, whether it hurts, and aftercare.
Cleaning around a crown, cleaning under a bridge, habits that protect them, and signs to act on.
The calm steps to take straight away, what never to do, how it is fixed, and why crowns come loose.
The conservative option between a filling and a crown, when it is right, and how it compares.
