Teeth Caps and Bridges
What are Dental Crowns ?
No matter how strong they look, your teeth are still vulnerable to breakage and damage, especially if not properly cared for. If, for any reason, one or more teeth that are damaged and do not look like your other healthy teeth, our dentists can restore them using a dental crown.
Dental Crowns are used to replace missing teeth. They can be made from gold, metal, porcelain and white (Tooth) colored Zirconium. White crowns can greatly improve your confidence and smile
What are Dental Bridges ?
Dental Bridges are used to fill in the gaps left by missing teeth and are anchored in place by the natural teeth or crowns nearest to the empty space. Both dental crowns and bridges are non-removable.
A dental crown may be needed in the following situations :
- If you have a weak or damaged tooth and you want to protect it from further decaying, breaking, and getting damaged.
- If you have a cracked or damaged tooth and you want to hold together it parts and prevent from further damage.
- If you have a broken tooth or a tooth that has been severely worn down, and you want to restore it, along with your beautiful smile.
- If you want to cover and support a tooth with a large filling when there isn't a lot of tooth left
Is a crown or bridge right for me ?
If you have a tooth that is damaged or decayed, but still intact, a dental crown may be right for you. If your tooth is missing, but its former position is surrounded by other tooth structures, a bridge may be the solution for you. Schedule an office consultation to determine whether you could benefit from crowns or bridges.
