What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-created cap that is designed to restore weak, damaged, or missing teeth. We offer crowns in the highest quality material, including zirconia, e-max, and porcelain fused to metal (PFM), and we are also happy to offer gold restorations if requested.
The following are some of the reasons why you may require a dental crown:
- To repair a severely decayed tooth or one with a large filling
- To restore a weak, chipped, or fractured tooth
- To cover a tooth after undergoing a root canal treatment
- To secure a dental bridge in place or cover a dental implant
- To transform the color, size, shape, or appearance of a tooth
The dental crown process typically requires two dental appointments. We will start by reshaping the affected tooth to accommodate your new crown. Next, we take digital impressions of your teeth that serve as a blueprint that technicians at our partner dental lab will use to create your restoration. Meanwhile, we'll place a temporary crown for protection. When your final restoration is ready, we will cement it and make any adjustments needed for a comfortable bite. Your treated tooth will look, feel, and function like your natural teeth.
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A bridge is a fixed alternative to a partial denture that's designed to replace one or several adjacent teeth. Your restoration will consist of a series of custom crowns that are secured to natural teeth on either side of the gap, known as abutment teeth.
The dental bridge procedure is similar to that of placing a crown. We will start by preparing the supporting teeth adjacent to the gap by removing some of their structure. Next, we will take digital impressions of the area to create your replacement teeth. Once your new bridge is ready, we will cement it in place and ensure it provides the perfect fit and optimal function.
