Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges are reliable restorative options for replacing missing teeth or repairing severe damage. These restorations are designed to look natural while improving chewing ability and supporting clear speech.
Same-Day Crowns & Bridges in Selah, WA
Chipped, cracked, or missing teeth can affect both appearance and function. At Selah Creek Dental, same-day crowns and bridges are used to restore strength, comfort, and a natural-looking smile in a single visit. Crafted from high-quality porcelain or ceramic, these restorations blend seamlessly with surrounding teeth while providing the durability needed for comfortable chewing and speaking.
Dental crowns are custom “caps” placed over damaged or weakened teeth to restore structure and appearance, and are often recommended when decay or damage is too extensive for fillings. Dental bridges replace missing teeth by spanning the gap with a series of crowns for a secure, functional result. Using advanced in-house technology, our dental team completes these restorations the same day, eliminating the need for multiple appointments.

When might I need a crown or bridge?
You might need a crown when a tooth is cracked, severely decayed, or unable to be restored with a filling. Crowns are also used after root canal treatment or to restore a dental implant. Bridges are recommended if you’ve lost a tooth and aren’t ready for an implant, helping prevent shifting of remaining teeth.

How should I care for my new crown or bridge?
