Questions About Dental Crowns And Dental Bridges
What Is A Dental Crown?
A dental crown represents the top part of a single tooth. It is carefully crafted out of porcelain to resemble your natural-looking tooth.
What Are Dental Crowns Used For?
Porcelain crowns are used in several procedures. A porcelain crown can be used to fill a gap in your smile. A dental crown, also known as a tooth cap, can cover a cavity too big for a filling. This protects your tooth from receiving more damage. Tooth caps can also be used to cover cracked or worn-down teeth to fortify them from further wear. Tooth caps are also used during dental implant procedures to restore your smile.
How Are Dental Crowns Made?
When you visit Wildflower Dental for a dental crown, we will take images and create impressions of your teeth. This will be sent to a laboratory where your dental crown will be crafted from durable and very strong materials. While waiting for your permanent crown, you will be fit with a temporary one that you will wear before returning to our office to have your permanent crown placed. Before placing your crown, we will make any necessary final adjustments to ensure a comfortable and proper bite. Once placed, the crown will receive a final polish to blend seamlessly with your smile.
What Is A Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a dental appliance used to span several missing teeth. In some cases, a dental bridge can be used to replace a single missing tooth. Dental bridges are made to look like natural teeth. They rest between two natural teeth, which act as anchors for the bridge.
What Are Dental Bridges Used For?
When you have missing teeth, it causes your surrounding teeth to work harder to fill the missing tooth’s role. This overcompensation can cause wear and tear on your intact teeth. It also causes your teeth to shift out of place, altering your natural bite. Besides increasing functionality, dental bridges can also positively enhance the appearance of your smile.
