Crowns, Bridges and Veneers in Greater Manchester
Damaged or missing teeth are not only an aesthetic issue, they can pose a number of health risks too, exposing teeth and gums to potential infection. If you want your natural smile back, or are desperate to be able to chew without discomfort, our Rochdale practice offers a host of restorative dental treatments, including crowns, bridges and veneers.
Crowns
If you are in need of a crown, you’ve come to the right place. The team at 4A Dental is an experienced provider of dental crowns in Rochdale, restoring both the function and the look of your teeth.
Designed to cap, or crown, a broken, chipped or discoloured tooth, a dental crown is a manmade model of a natural tooth and is considered an extremely effective restorative dental treatment. Crowns are also attached to dental implants and are often recommended following root canal therapy, as the tooth can become brittle and prone to breaking.
Bridges
An ideal solution for missing teeth, a dental bridge is a fixed replacement, supported on either side by crowns. Available from our Rochdale practice, bridges are usually created from porcelain or precious metal, and are an excellent fixed alternative to dentures.
Like crowns, bridges are made in a dental lab, and can be created to match the exact shape and shade you require. Your dentist at 4A Dental will talk you through the process at your consultation.

Veneers
Consisting of a layer of porcelain that is carefully laid over the existing tooth, veneers are an excellent option for anyone with broken, discoloured or misshapen teeth. The procedure is minimally invasive and there is a wealth of choice of finish, which our dentists here at 4A Dental will guide you through. For more information about getting veneers in Rochdale, take a look at our cosmetic dentistry page.
Why would I need a crown?
Crowns offer both a cosmetic solution to damaged or discoloured teeth and a practical option for strengthening bridges and root canals, and protecting fillings.
What is it made of?
More often than not either pressed ceramic or zirconia. Sometimes porcelain fused to metal can be used and nowadays more rarely Gold
Is it painful to get a crown?
No – to prepare a tooth for a crown, your dentist will apply local anaesthetic, before filing the existing tooth into a shape that will accommodate the crown. Dental impressions are then taken and sent to a technician who will create the crown. A temporary crown can be fitted while the permanent one is being made.
