Expert Dental Crowns & Bridges in Hawthorne, CA
Don’t let a damaged or missing tooth affect your quality of life. At Trusted Dental & Orthodontics, we provide custom-crafted crowns and bridges that look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth.
What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown (often called a "cap") is a custom-fitted restoration that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth. Our Hawthorne office uses crowns to:
Strengthen Weakened Teeth: Protecting teeth that have large fillings or have undergone root canal therapy.
Repair Fractures: Holding a cracked tooth together to prevent further damage.
Enhance Aesthetics: Covering severely discolored or misshapen teeth.
Top a Dental Implant: Serving as the final "tooth" for a permanent replacement.
Replace Missing Teeth with a Custom Bridge
If you are missing one or more teeth in a row, a dental bridge is a time-tested, reliable solution. A bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth (pontics) that are held in place by dental crowns attached to your natural teeth on either side of the gap.
Benefits of a Dental Bridge at Trusted Dental:
Restores Your Smile: Fills the gap and prevents a "sunken" facial appearance.
Prevents Shifting: Keeps your remaining teeth from drifting out of place.
Restores Function: Allows you to chew and speak properly again.
Stability: Unlike partial dentures, bridges are fixed and do not slip.
Durable, Metal-Free Restorations
We believe Hawthorne patients deserve the best materials available. We offer:
All-Porcelain & Zirconia: These materials provide the best aesthetic result, mimicking the translucency of natural teeth while offering incredible strength.
Digital Impressions: No more "goopy" putty! We use digital scanners to create a precise 3D model of your mouth for a perfect fit.
Precision Fitting: Our crowns and bridges are designed to ensure your bite is perfectly aligned, preventing future jaw pain or wear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many appointments are required for a crown or bridge?
A: Typically, these procedures require two visits. During the first, we prepare the tooth and take an impression; during the second, we bond your permanent, custom-made restoration.
Q: How long do dental crowns last?
A: With proper brushing, flossing, and regular checkups at our Hawthorne office, a crown can last 10–15 years or longer.
Q: Is a bridge better than a dental implant?
A: It depends on your bone health and budget. During your consultation, we will compare both options to see which is best for your specific needs.
Q: Will my new crown match my other teeth?
A: Yes! We use precise shade-matching technology to ensure your crown or bridge blends seamlessly with your surrounding teeth.
