Do you have missing or damaged teeth? Do you struggle with biting into your food due to the gap left behind? A crown or a dental bridge can bring back your natural smile and enable you to eat your favourite foods again.
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps that are placed over your teeth to protect them from damage while improving their appearance. A dental bridge is two crowns, with an artificial tooth attached between them. The artificial tooth fills the gap left by a missing tooth, while the crowns cover adjacent teeth and anchor the artificial tooth.
If you’re wondering if a dental crown or bridge is a good option for you, schedule a FREE Smile Assessment with our dentist and find out how these cosmetic dental procedures can enhance your smile.
If your teeth are damaged, you are at an increased risk for developing tooth decay or gum disease. If your teeth need to be protected, it’s important to talk with a dental professional before your situation worsens and warrants additional treatment. Lost teeth can also cause issues. Over time, the remaining teeth may shift into the gap, causing a change in the shape of your smile, making chewing difficult, and increasing your risk for tooth decay. Gaps in your teeth should be closed promptly to ensure the long-term health of your mouth and teeth.
Our dental team are both highly capable and experienced in providing dental care that makes a difference in the lives of his patients. We are passionate about providing a painless, comfortable experience for you. If you need a crown or dental bridge, call our office to learn more about what we can do for you.
At your appointment, our doctor will answer any questions you may have about the procedure so that you feel completely comfortable and relaxed about moving forward. If you would like to be sedated for the duration of your treatment, simply ask us ahead of time so that we can prepare for your appointment and discuss the available options.
We will then take impressions of your teeth which will then be used to design the crown so that it will fit your tooth properly and appear as natural as possible. When the dental crown returns from the lab, our dentist will then bond it over the tooth and complete your procedure. Have a question? Just ask! We’d love to hear from you.
Caring for your crown or dental bridge is the same as caring for your teeth: simply brush them twice and floss them once each day. You can also rinse with mouthwash daily to which will also help prevent tooth decay.
It is important to avoid extremely hard foods. Chewing on ice, for example, might crack your crown.
While not likely, if you should start to notice your crown or bridge coming loose, contact our professional staff immediately. We’ll re-attach your device and get your crown or bridge back in action before you know it.
