Dental crown

What you need to know??

Crowns are made to match the color of your natural teeth, and besides strengthening an impaired tooth, these can be used to improve your teeth’s appearance, shape or alignment.

Over time, teeth can be damaged, cracked or weakened by decay. Dentists use a crown to entirely cover or “cap” a damaged tooth.

Dental crowns can be fashioned from stainless steel, ceramic, acrylic, gold and metal alloys. Unlike removable devices such as dentures, crowns are cemented onto existing teeth or implants, and can only be removed by your dentist.

Our team of dental experts may recommend a crown to:

• Protect a weak tooth from breaking, or hold together segments of a cracked tooth
• Restore an already damaged tooth
• Replace a large filling when there is not enough tooth remaining
• Hold a dental bridge in place
• Cover a dental implant
• Cover a badly shaped or severely discoloured tooth
• Cover a tooth that has had root canal treatment.

How long does a dental crown last?

With good oral hygiene, crowns can last for over a decade.

A crown may come loose or fall out if the underlying tooth is damaged by gum disease or tooth decay.  Regular checkups and professional cleanings are just as necessary to make sure you maintain your optimum oral health.

Dental Bridges

If you have lost a tooth/teeth, bridges can restore your smile, your ability to properly speak and chew and maintain your facial structure. Bridges can also prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of position.

Dental Bridges

Dental bridges, also known as fixed partial dentures, literally bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth.

A typical bridge is made up of two crowns (one on either side of the gap) and a false tooth/teeth in between. Bridges are attached to surrounding natural teeth or dental implants for support.

How long do dental bridges last?

Depending on which type of bridge your dentist suggests, its success depends on the foundation. This is why it’s vital to keep your remaining teeth strong and healthy. With good oral hygiene and regular professional cleaning, a fixed bridge can even last for over a decade.
