Dental Crowns & Bridges: Restoring Your Smile with Precision and Elegance
At Dr. Tandon's Dental Speciality Clinic, we understand the importance of a confident smile and the impact of missing or damaged teeth. Our dental crowns and bridges offer a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution to restore your smile and improve oral function.
What are Dental Crowns and Bridges?
Dental crowns and bridges are dental restorations used to repair or replace damaged or missing teeth. A dental crown, also known as a dental cap, is a custom-made cover that fits over a damaged or decayed tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and appearance. Dental bridges, on the other hand, are prosthetic devices that replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent teeth or dental implants.
The Advantages of Dental Bridges
Dental bridges offer several advantages, including:
Restored Functionality: Bridges fill the gap left by missing teeth, restoring the ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence.
Preserved Facial Structure: Missing teeth can cause facial sagging and changes in appearance. Bridges help maintain proper facial structure and prevent premature aging.
Improved Bite Alignment: By replacing missing teeth, bridges help distribute bite forces evenly, reducing the risk of uneven wear on remaining teeth.
Enhanced Speech: Missing teeth can affect speech clarity. Dental bridges improve speech by providing support for proper tongue movement.
The Dental Crown and Bridge Procedure
The dental crown and bridge procedure generally involves two stages:
1. Preparation: During the first appointment, our skilled dentists prepare the affected tooth or teeth by removing any decay and shaping them to accommodate the crown or bridge.
2. Customization and Placement: Impressions of the prepared teeth are taken to create custom-made crowns or bridges that precisely fit your unique dental anatomy. Temporary restorations may be placed while the permanent ones are being fabricated. During the second appointment, the final crowns or bridges are carefully fitted and cemented in place, completing the restoration process.
