At Excellence Dental, we create custom porcelain crowns and bridges to help restore your smile’s strength and appearance. With the help of advanced dental technology, each restoration is carefully designed to fit comfortably and look natural. Our goal is to help you smile, eat, and speak with confidence.
What Are Crowns?
Crowns, or caps, cover and protect damaged or decayed teeth. Unlike fillings, which repair a small part of a tooth, crowns restore the entire structure. This makes them the ideal solution for teeth that are severely damaged, broken, or weakened. They also improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth. Crowns complete dental implants by covering the implant and creating a natural look.
Porcelain crowns are a popular choice because they look natural and are strong. With proper care, these crowns can last many years. However, like all restorations, they may need repair or replacement as time goes on.
What Are Bridges?
Bridges replace one or more missing teeth. They anchor to the surrounding teeth with crowns and hold a false tooth in between. Bridges restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile confidently. They also prevent nearby teeth from shifting, which can lead to misalignment.
What to Expect During the Procedure
At Excellence Dental Care, we complete the crown or bridge procedure in two visits. During the first appointment, our dentist will prepare your tooth by removing decay and shaping it for the crown or bridge. We then take digital impressions to create your custom restoration. You will wear a temporary crown or bridge to protect your tooth while we craft your permanent one.
When you return for the second appointment, we remove the temporary restoration and fit the permanent one. Our dentist will ensure the crown or bridge fits comfortably and functions properly.
Caring for Your Crowns and Bridges
To maintain your crowns and bridges, it is very important to practice good oral hygiene. Brush and floss daily, especially around the restoration. Visit Excellence Dental regularly for checkups. With proper care, your crown or bridge can last for many years, keeping your smile healthy and strong.
