A Full, Working Bite Again
A cracked tooth, a worn-down filling, or a gap left by a missing tooth doesn’t have to change how you eat, talk, or smile. Dr. Waris and Dr. Arafa build crowns and bridges custom-shaped and shaded to match your own smile.
What a Crown Does. What a Bridge Does.
Crowns
A custom cap that fits over a tooth that’s cracked, worn, decayed, or been through a root canal. It covers the whole visible tooth, restoring strength and shape while matching the color of the teeth around it.
Bridges
Fills the gap left by one or more missing teeth, anchoring the replacement to the healthy teeth on either side, or in some cases to a dental implant. A fixed option that doesn’t come out at night.
When neither is the right tool
Missing several teeth or most of an arch? A denture (or an implant-supported option) may serve you better. We’ll tell you honestly which fits your case, at your exam. Not an upsell.
Crowns are also the standard follow-up after a root canal: a treated tooth needs the extra strength a cap provides. Learn about root canal treatment →
From Exam to Final Fit
Exam & scan
We look at the tooth, the gap, and everything around it.
Honest tradeoffs
Crown, bridge, or denture, including the options that cost less up front.
Made for you
Custom-shaped and shaded to match your smile, with an in-house lab team.
Fit & follow-up
We fine-tune the fit and keep an eye on it at your regular visits.
Planned and Delivered by the Same Team
From a single crown to a full set of teeth, your restoration is planned by the doctor who delivers it, with lab work handled by our own lab technicians.
And if an implant-supported option makes sense for your case, Dr. Arafa places and restores it himself, so nothing gets split across three offices.
Office staff are always welcoming and follows up with insurance and billing very well so there are no surprises. I have been a long time patient and they have been very accommodating with dental emergencies.
No Guessing on Cost
We’re in-network with most major PPO plans and accept Medicaid. Not sure your plan is covered? Call the office and our team will check for you before your visit.
For anything insurance doesn’t cover, we offer financing plus in-house payment plans. Pricing is reviewed with you at your consultation, before any treatment begins, so there are no surprises on the bill.
Crown & Bridge Questions
Often a decade or more with normal brushing, flossing, and checkups, though this varies by material and how the tooth is used day to day.
Yes. Your crown or bridge is custom-shaped and shaded to match the teeth around it, not a generic size or color, with the shaping and shading done alongside our in-house lab team.
We numb the area before any reshaping, and most patients find it more comfortable than expected. Sedation options are available if you’re anxious.
Often, yes. A bridge can span a few teeth in a row, anchored by healthy teeth (or an implant) on either end. We’ll look at your specific gap at a consult.
Call us. A temporary should hold you over comfortably until your final restoration is ready. We’ll adjust it if something doesn’t feel right.
Yes. Insurance often covers part of a crown or bridge, we’re in-network with most major PPO plans, and we accept Medicaid. We’ll check your specific coverage before your visit so you know what to expect.
