A dental crown is a cap that completely covers a damaged, weakened, or decayed tooth. Crowns are often recommended for:
Large cavities that cannot be filled
Severely worn down or cracked teeth
After root canal therapy
As an anchor for a dental bridge
To improve the appearance of a discolored or misshapen tooth
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth. It works by anchoring artificial teeth (pontics) to the natural teeth or implants adjacent to the empty space. Bridges help to:
Restore the ability to chew and speak properly
Maintain the shape of your face
Prevent adjacent teeth from shifting
Restore your smile’s appearance and balance
Enjoy your favorite foods without discomfort or worry.
Get a natural-looking smile that restores your facial symmetry and boosts self-confidence.
Replace missing teeth that may impact pronunciation.
Crowns shield damaged teeth from further decay or fracture.
Prevent shifting of surrounding teeth, which can lead to misalignment or TMJ issues.
Our dentist performs a comprehensive oral exam and takes digital X-rays to assess your dental health and determine the best treatment plan for your needs.
For crowns, the tooth is numbed and reshaped to accommodate the restoration. If you’re getting a bridge, the adjacent teeth (abutments) are also prepared to anchor the bridge.
We take digital or physical impressions of your teeth, which are sent to a dental lab to custom-make your crown or bridge. In the meantime, a temporary crown is placed to protect your teeth.
Once the final restoration is ready (usually within 2-3 weeks), we schedule your appointment. The temporary bridge has been removed, and the new crown bridge is securely cemented into place. We make any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit and natural bite.
Proper care is essential to ensure the longevity of your crown bridge:
Brush twice a day and floss daily, especially around the bridge.
These can dislodge or damage your restoration.
Get professional cleanings and check-ups every six months.
If you grind your teeth at night, a guard can protect you from wear and tear.
Our team will give you complete post-procedure care instructions and help you schedule routine maintenance visits.
