Restorative Dental Crown and Bridges
What are Dental Crowns?
When a tooth is weakened due to trauma, large fillings, or decay, dental crowns may be required to restore it to optimal health. A crown or cap is a tooth-coloured restoration, made of porcelain covering that is permanently placed over an existing tooth. It can be used to add strength, correct the bite, or improve the overall appearance of a tooth.
What are Dental Bridges?
A fixed bridge is an option to replace one or more missing teeth. It is permanently cemented to the teeth adjacent to the missing tooth or teeth. The benefits of a fixed bridge include restoring the natural bite, preventing opposing and adjacent teeth from moving into the space, improving chewing function, and enhancing your appearance. Removable dentures or dental implants are alternatives to a fixed bridge.
What are the benefits of crowns and bridges?
Crowns and bridges provide significant advantages for those with weakened or missing teeth. They can:
- Help maintain the structure of your face
- Improve your ability to chew and speak
- Restore proper alignment in your bite
- Prevent nearby teeth from shifting out of place
- Enhance the appearance of your smile
- Protect teeth that are fractured or decayed
Your dentist may also suggest a custom crown after a root canal to safeguard the tooth from further decay, reducing the risk of tooth loss. For missing teeth, an implant-supported crown can replace the tooth, allowing you to eat and speak naturally while also preventing other teeth from shifting.
