Understanding Dental Crowns and bridges. Craftsmanship for lasting brilliance.
Dental Crowns and Bridges are two versatile and widely-used restorative dental treatments that serve different purposes
Dental Crowns
These are protective caps that are custom-made to cover an individual tooth. They are typically used to strengthen and restore the shape, size, and appearance of a damaged or weakened tooth.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of one or more artificial teeth (pontics) held in place by crowns on adjacent healthy teeth (abutments).
Dental crowns and bridges, fundamental in restorative dentistry, vary notably based on the materials used for their fabrication
All-porcelain or ceramic crowns and bridges
All-porcelain or ceramic crowns and bridges are renowned for their impeccable aesthetic appeal, making them ideal for front teeth restorations.
Zirconia crowns
and bridges
have gained prominence, as they combine the strength of metal with the aesthetic brilliance of porcelain.
Gold alloys
.
Gold alloys and other metal-based crowns, while less visually appealing, are highly durable, resistant to corrosion, and ensure minimal wear to the adjacent teeth.
Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns and bridges
Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) are durable and aesthetic, offering a natural appearance while maintaining strength. Not widely used anymore,but if you already have an existing PFM crown or a bridge we may use this material to achieve uniformity.
What are some short and long term
benefits of crowns and bridges?
Immediate
Restoration
Dental fillings provide prompt relief from toothaches and discomfort, allowing you to enjoy pain-free eating and drinking.
Enhanced
Aesthetics
Fillings restore the natural function of your teeth, making it easier to bite, chew, and speak without hindrance.
Improved Chewing
and Speech
Our practice offers tooth-colored fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring a beautiful, natural appearance.
Protection
.
Dental fillings help preserve your natural teeth, preventing the need for extractions or more invasive treatments.
Durability
.
Fillings seal off cavities, preventing the spread of decay and the development of new cavities.
Preservation of
Oral Health
Addressing cavities early with fillings is a cost-effective approach compared to more extensive treatments that may become necessary if left untreated.
What are some risks of not doing
Crowns and Bridges when indicated?
Progressive
Tooth Damage
When a damaged or decayed tooth is left untreated without the protection of a crown, the deterioration can progress, leading to further structural damage or even tooth loss.
Misalignment &
Bite Issues
Missing teeth that aren’t replaced with bridges can result in adjacent teeth drifting into the gap. This can lead to misalignment, bite problems, and increased stresses on other teeth.
Difficulty in Chewing & Functionality
Without a crown to restore a fractured or decayed tooth, or a bridge to replace a missing tooth, patients may experience difficulties in chewing food efficiently, which can affect nutrition and overall oral health.
Increased Risk of Decay & Gum Disease
Exposed tooth surfaces, due to fractures or large cavities, are more susceptible to bacterial accumulation, leading to further decay and potential gum disease.
Aesthetic
Concerns
Missing or damaged teeth can impact the aesthetics of one’s smile, leading to potential self-confidence and self-esteem issues.
