What Are Dental Crowns and Why Would You Need One?
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped “caps” we place over existing teeth to restore their strength, beauty, and function. At Seven Hills Dental Group, we offer crowns made of the highest quality biocompatible porcelain or ceramic material that we closely match to your natural teeth, delivering seamless, durable smiles.
The following are some of the reasons we may recommend a dental crown:
- To repair a tooth with deep decay or severe damage
- To restore a chipped, worn, or cracked tooth
- To preserve a tooth that has undergone a root canal treatment
- To anchor a dental bridge or restore a dental implant
- To improve a tooth’s size, shape, color, or overall appearance
What Is the Dental Crown Placement Process?
After determining that a crown is the best choice for your smile, we will begin the restoration procedure. It typically involves reshaping the affected tooth to accommodate your new restoration. Next, we use our intraoral scanner or a traditional impression material to accurately capture the shape of your tooth. Our partner dental lab will create your new restoration to the specifications of your smile, ensuring superior fit, comfort, and function.
What Are Dental Bridges and What Are Their Benefits?
If you have lost one or more adjacent teeth and you are not quite ready to commit to dental implants, a dental bridge may be your next best option to complete your smile. These fixed restorations are made up of a series of dental crowns that literally “bridge” the gap left by one or more lost or extracted teeth.
Dental bridges offer many benefits, including the following:
- They eliminate gaps in your smile
- They restore your ability to chew and enjoy your favorite foods
- They allow you to speak clearly once again
- They keep the remaining teeth from shifting, preserving your bite
- They improve your oral health and the function of your teeth
- They offer an effective long-term solution to restore your smile
What Is the Dental Bridge Placement Process?
The dental bridge process is similar to placing a dental crown. We start by preparing the teeth neighboring the gap to accommodate dental crowns that will support your restoration. Next, we will take impressions of your teeth to ensure a seamless and comfortable fit. Skilled and experienced technicians at our partner lab will use these impressions to create your new dental bridge. Our restorations are made from high-quality materials and are closely color-matched to your natural teeth, delivering beautifully natural results.
