Lexington Dental of Owasso Restores Smiles to Perfect Health

Dental crowns hold this permanent oral appliance in place, repairing your smile and filling the gaps left between your teeth. A dental bridge is a conservative approach to a dental restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth. Dental bridges are more affordable and last just as long as dental implants or different types of dentures.
