What Are Crowns and Bridges?
Crowns: A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth. It restores the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance.
Bridges: A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of artificial teeth anchored by crowns on adjacent natural teeth or implants.
Benefits Of Crowns And Bridges
- Restores Functionality – Helps in chewing and speaking properly by filling the gaps left by missing teeth.
- Prevents Teeth Shifting – Bridges prevent the adjacent teeth from shifting, which can lead to misalignment.
- Strengthens Weak Teeth – Crowns provide reinforcement to teeth weakened by decay, cracks, or large fillings.
- Long-lasting Solution – With proper care, crowns and bridges can last for many years, making them a worthwhile investment in your oral health.
Enhances Aesthetic Appeal – Designed to match the color and shape of natural teeth for a seamless look.
The Process of Getting Crowns And Bridges
At Dentalandaesthetic, we follow a precise and patient-friendly procedure:
- Initial Consultation – Our specialists assess your oral health and discuss the best treatment plan.
- Tooth Preparation – For crowns, the damaged tooth is reshaped to accommodate the crown. For bridges, the adjacent teeth are prepared to support the artificial tooth.
- Impressions and Customization – We take impressions of your teeth to ensure a perfect fit and natural look.
- Temporary Crown/Bridge Placement – While the permanent crown or bridge is being crafted, a temporary restoration is placed.
- Final Fitting and Bonding – Once ready, the permanent crown or bridge is adjusted for fit and comfort, then securely bonded in place.
