Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental Crowns Los Angeles, Dental Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges are often times done at Downtown Dental for individuals that need to restore their teeth. There are two common cosmetic dentistry procedures that are done by Dr. Mungcal regularly.
Dental crowns are a form of restoration for teeth that has had too much decay or has lost a lot of its original strength and form. It is usually recommended when the natural tooth structure is compromised, when it is damaged from either trauma or extensive decay. They can also be used when there are fillings in which there is not enough enamel left for support. Another option is to use an onlay, which is a partial restoration that is placed over the portion of the tooth that needs protection and strength.
A dental bridge is a restoration that is used to replace a missing tooth. The adjacent teeth are filed down, and a bridge is placed on top, supporting a false tooth in the middle. This can help fill in a gap where a tooth is missing from decay, age, or trauma, and can help improve one's smile. Other alternatives to dental bridges are dental implants and partial dentures.
Our dental restorations at Downtown Dental are created with quality materials in order to appear natural and life-like. We also offer metal-free crowns and restorations, which also require less tooth reduction and are extremely strong.

He has completed thousands of restorations for his patients over his twenty years of dental experience.
