Risks & side effects

Tooth preparation (reduction of natural tooth structure) is required for the crowns and bridge.
Temporary sensitivity may occur after preparation.
Prepared teeth require a permanent restoration.
Direct composite bonding may discolour or chip over time and may require periodic maintenance or replacement.
Crowns and bridges have a finite lifespan and may need replacement in the future.
