Crown & Bridges: Restore Your Smile, Strength, and Confidence
Elevate Your Oral Health with Durable, Natural-Looking Solutions
Missing or damaged teeth can significantly impact your ability to chew, speak clearly, and smile with confidence. At [Your Clinic/Lab Name], we specialize in crafting high-quality Dental Crowns and Dental Bridges that not only restore the function of your bite but also blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, giving you a beautiful, healthy smile that lasts.
Understanding Dental Crowns
A dental crown, often called a 'cap,' is a custom-made restoration that covers the entire visible portion of a damaged or weakened tooth above the gum line. It is meticulously designed to mimic the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth, providing strength and protection.
When is a Dental Crown Recommended?
- Protecting a weak tooth from fracturing or holding together parts of a cracked tooth.
- Restoring a tooth that is already broken or severely worn down.
- Covering and supporting a tooth with a large filling when there isn't much tooth left.
- Covering misshapen or severely discolored teeth for aesthetic enhancement.
- Covering a dental implant.
- Attaching a bridge.
- After a root canal treatment to strengthen the tooth.
Understanding Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a custom-made prosthetic device designed to 'bridge' the gap created by one or more missing teeth. It consists of artificial teeth (pontics) held in place by dental crowns on the adjacent natural teeth or implants. Bridges are a fixed solution, meaning they are cemented in place and cannot be removed by the patient.
When is a Dental Bridge Recommended?
- Replacing one or more missing teeth.
- Preventing remaining teeth from shifting into the empty space.
- Restoring chewing and speaking ability.
- Maintaining the natural shape of your face.
- Distributing the forces in your bite by replacing missing teeth.
