At the office of Dr. Coope in Milford, DE, we believe in “excellence in all we do.” That means providing dental crowns and bridges that are not only strong and long-lasting, but also look and feel natural. Our friendly team is committed to patient comfort, honest communication, and high-quality results for every member of your family.
Whether you need to restore a damaged tooth with a dental crown or replace missing teeth with a dental bridge, we create customized treatment plans to protect your oral health and your smile.
A dental crown is a custom-made “cap” that covers and protects a tooth that is badly decayed, cracked, worn, or otherwise damaged. Crowns restore the tooth’s shape, strength, and appearance so you can chew, speak, and smile with confidence again.
During your visit, Dr. Coope will listen to your concerns, carefully examine your teeth, and explain whether a crown is the best solution for you. You will always receive an honest and complete treatment plan tailored to your needs and budget.
A dental bridge is a fixed (non-removable) restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. A bridge is made of an artificial tooth (or teeth) anchored by crowns on the natural teeth or implants next to the gap.
Missing teeth can affect your confidence and your oral health. A custom bridge from our Milford dental office can help you regain a full, healthy smile and avoid future dental problems.
Patients’ care and customer service are foremost in our office. Dr. Coope and his friendly staff take the time to:
We know that needing a crown or bridge can feel stressful. Our team focuses on gentle, respectful care and a calm, friendly environment so you can feel at ease during every visit.
We offer a variety of materials and options to ensure your crown or bridge fits comfortably, functions properly, and blends naturally with your smile.
During your consultation, Dr. Coope will recommend the best material based on the location of the tooth, your bite, cosmetic goals, and budget.
Each bridge is custom-designed for your mouth to ensure a comfortable fit and a natural appearance.
We begin with a thorough examination and, if needed, digital X-rays to assess the health of your teeth and gums. Dr. Coope will discuss your symptoms, review your options, and create a plan that fits your needs.
For a crown, the tooth is gently shaped so the new crown can fit securely. For a bridge, the teeth next to the missing space are prepared for crowns that will support the bridge.
We take precise impressions or digital scans of your teeth, which are used by a dental lab to craft your custom crown or bridge. You will typically leave this visit with a comfortable temporary crown or bridge to protect your teeth while your permanent restoration is being made.
Once your permanent crown or bridge is ready, you’ll return so we can:
Our goal is for your restoration to feel natural from the moment you leave the office.
We’ll show you the best way to clean around your crown or bridge and help you maintain excellent oral hygiene. Regular checkups allow us to monitor your restoration and keep your entire mouth healthy.
With proper care, dental crowns and bridges can last many years. Their lifespan depends on your oral hygiene habits, diet, bite forces, and regular dental checkups.
If you have a broken, decayed, or missing tooth, don’t wait. The sooner we address it, the easier it is to restore your smile and protect your oral health.
