Dental Crowns & Bridges at TAG Dental Clinic Johor Bahru – Restore Your Smile with Confidence

If you have damaged, weakened, or missing teeth, dental crowns and bridges in Johor Bahru can help restore your smile’s function and appearance. At TAG Dental Clinic JB, we provide high-quality, metal-free restorations designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth while offering long-lasting durability.

What Are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and function. Made from high-quality materials, crowns protect teeth from further damage while improving aesthetics.

When Might You Need a Dental Crown? ✔ Large decay or filling – When a tooth is too damaged for a regular filling ✔ Cracked or fractured tooth – To prevent further breakage ✔ After a root canal – To protect the treated tooth ✔ Severe discoloration or irregular shape – For a more uniform smile ✔ Dental implant restoration – As the visible tooth replacement ✔ Support for a dental bridge – To anchor replacement teeth

At TAG Dental Clinic Johor Bahru, we use metal-free ceramic crowns for a natural look and biocompatibility.

Types of Dental Crowns We Offer
1. All-Ceramic / Porcelain Crowns

  • Metal-free, biocompatible
  • Ideal for front teeth

2. Porcelain-Fused-to-Zirconia Crowns
  • Strong & durable (great for back teeth)
  • Natural-looking with added strength

3. E-Max (Lithium Disilicate) Crowns

What Is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth (pontics) to adjacent natural teeth or implants. Bridges restore:

  • Chewing & speaking ability
  • Facial structure & smile aesthetics
  • Proper bite alignment

Types of Dental Bridges 🔹 Traditional Bridges – Crowns on adjacent teeth support the false tooth. 🔹 Cantilever Bridges – Used when only one adjacent tooth is available. 🔹 Implant-Supported Bridges – More stable, preserves jawbone health.
