What Are Dental Crowns and Bridges?

Dental crowns and bridges are two popular treatments for fixing teeth.

  • Dental Crowns: Think of a crown as a cap that covers a damaged or decayed tooth. It helps make the tooth look and work like new again. Crowns are used when a tooth is weak, has a big filling, or needs extra protection.

 

  • Dental Bridges: A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth. It involves putting crowns on the teeth next to the gap and placing a false tooth in between. This helps fill the gap and complete your smile.

 

Understanding Dental Crowns & Bridges

Types of Dental Crowns

  • Porcelain: Matches the natural color of your teeth for a seamless look.
  • Metal: Provides strength and durability; less visible.
  • Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal: Combines the strength of metal with the aesthetics of porcelain.
  • Resin: Less expensive but may wear down faster.

Procedure for Getting a Dental Crown

  • Initial consultation and examination.
  • Tooth preparation and impressions.
  • Placement of a temporary crown.
  • Final fitting and placement of the permanent crown.

Aftercare and Maintenance

  • Maintain good oral hygiene with regular brushing and flossing.
  • Avoid hard or sticky foods.
  • Attend regular dental check-ups.

Types of Dental Bridges

  • Traditional: Anchored by crowns on adjacent teeth.
  • Cantilever: Supported by a single adjacent tooth.
  • Maryland (Resin-Bonded): Uses a metal or porcelain framework to support the false tooth.
  • Implant-Supported: Supported by dental implants rather than crowns.

Procedure for Getting a Dental Bridge

  • Initial consultation and examination.
  • Preparation of adjacent teeth and impressions.
  • Placement of a temporary bridge.
  • Fitting and placement of the permanent bridge.

Aftercare and Maintenance

  • Practice good oral hygiene.
  • Avoid chewing hard foods directly on the bridge.
  • Regular dental visits to check the fit and function.
