What Is a Dental Crown or Bridge?
Crowns and bridges are custom prosthetic devices designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Cemented to existing teeth or attached to implants, they restore function and aesthetics with a natural appearance. A crown fully covers a damaged tooth or dental implant, while a bridge replaces one or more missing teeth, preventing neighboring teeth from shifting and helping to preserve bone structure.
Crowns and bridges may be recommended for several reasons, including:
- Protecting a weak tooth from breaking
- Restoring a fractured tooth
- Covering a dental implant
- Enhancing the appearance of a discolored or misshapen tooth
- Protecting a tooth after root canal treatment
- Filling gaps left by missing teeth
These solutions not only improve your smile but also contribute to long-term oral health and stability.
How to Care for Your Crown or Bridge
Choosing a crown or bridge is a great way to restore your smile, but proper care is key to ensuring its longevity. With the right maintenance, your restoration can stay strong and look great for years. After your crown or bridge placement, be sure to practice good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing daily and keeping up with regular dental visits. Avoid hard foods and excessive pressure on the restoration for the period recommended by your dentist. If you have any questions, our team is always happy to provide guidance, tips, and personalized care recommendations.
