"As I was referred to Dr. Suway by my Periodontist, I wondered what was in store for me. My intense feeling of dread was unbelievably changed with Dr. Suway’s reassuring and gentle care.
"At the time I believed my only option would be extraction with replacement by dentures – my worst nightmare! Not so! Dr. Suway very kindly sat down with me during my consultation and explained everything we needed to do to obtain great oral health and no dentures!
"He mapped out an extensive plan which included gum surgery, multiple dental implants (the best thing ever!) with crowns and bridges. He proceeded with our plan and I can only tell you and everyone he so kindly and carefully made me the happiest woman alive! I could actually smile and eat normally without feeling self-conscious.
"Dr. Suway’s manner is extremely caring and professional. I continue my care with him and his outstanding staff. They go above and beyond to accommodate your schedule, not theirs. Dr. Suway removed my emotion of dread forever and I look forward to seeing him.”

Crowns & Bridges
Dr. Suway creates custom crowns for natural-looking, healthy smiles.
Sometimes more than a filling is needed to repair a tooth. If a tooth is severely decayed, broken or missing, a crown or dental bridge may be what you need.
Dr. Wayne Suway has crafted and placed thousands of dental crowns and bridges. With more than 30 years of experience in tooth reconstruction, Dr. Suway will make sure that if you need a crown or a bridge, it fits perfectly, is extremely durable, gives you a comfortable bite, and is color-matched to look and feel like your natural tooth.

Beautiful, permanent crowns can transform your smile
Dr. Suway creates permanent, natural-looking crowns for you that are made of the highest quality materials.
Crowns are a type of dental restoration that fully cover the portion of a tooth that lies at and above the gum line. A crown or cap protects the underlying tooth.
Why do I need a crown?
You may need a crown because of:
-
Extensive tooth decay
-
Large metal or tooth-colored fillings, that weaken the remaining tooth
-
Broken or cracked teeth
-
A tooth that has had root canal therapy
-
A misaligned or misshaped tooth
-
Teeth that have large fillings that are breaking down and cannot be refilled
Sometimes a crown is not the optimum solution and other dental procedures such as porcelain veneers or dental bonding are more appropriate.
Helping you get crowns that are perfect for you
In a consultation, Dr. Suway will discuss your treatment options with you and develop a treatment plan.
Dr. Suway is often called a “perfectionist” by his patients because of the individualized attention and craftsmanship he puts into every procedure he performs.
When you and Dr. Suway decide that you need crowns, you will work together as partners to put the perfect crowns in place.
In addition to a full oral examination and xrays, Dr. Suway will photograph your mouth and jaw using our intraoral camera.
Dr. Suway makes a model of your new crowns
A model of your future teeth will help you and Dr. Suway finalize your treatment plan.
Next, Dr. Suway will take a wax impression of your teeth, and create a working model of what he expects that your smile will look like after your crowns are in place. You will review this model with Dr. Suway, and decide what you would like to have your smile look like. The choice will always be up to you.
Once you've approved the model, Dr. Suway will begin his work on your teeth. Some procedures can be done in single sitting; others may require multiple visits.
If you need extractions or implant surgery to ensure that your smile is right, Dr. Suway will handle that, too, right here in our offices.
If multiple visits are required, he will prepare your teeth and give you temporaries to try. He will make sure that you are happy with the size, shape and function of your temporaries, and then proceed to provide you with permanent teeth that you will absolutely love.
Your treatment plan will be unique
Dr. Suway has helped hundreds of patients perfect their smiles, but he is very aware that each case is unique. He will carefully design a treatment plan for you that is right for you and only you. With many options for treatment at his fingertips, he will make sure that you get the beautiful, healthy, and perfect smile that you want.
Dr. Suway has placed thousands of crowns and can create a new, beautiful smile for you.

Comfortable, durable dental bridges
Bridges are used to fill gaps between the teeth. Dr. Suway has over 30 years of experience crafting custom bridges for his patients. Dr. Suway carefully crafts crowns for the bridges that are made from extremely durable material, and are color-matched to your other teeth.
When is a Bridge needed?
If you have even one missing tooth, your other teeth may slowly shift out of place. This changes the way your teeth fit together. Your teeth may become harder to clean which can lead to tooth decay and gum disease and your jaw may hurt from a poor bite. It is important to fill gaps between teeth and a bridge is one of the best ways to accomplish that.
Is a Bridge the best option?
In many cases, a dental implant is preferable to a bridge when you have missing teeth. Come in for a complimentary consultation with Dr. Suway, and discuss the options that would work best for you.
