What are Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental crowns and dental bridges are two types of oral prosthetics. These prosthetics are attachments that can be placed on existing dental work. A dental crown is a metal prosthetic that covers your current teeth. The purpose of a crown is to improve the appearance and capacity of the tooth.
A dental bridge is a permanent restoration of a missing tooth used to replace one or more missing teeth. Generally, it is used prior to dentures. Often, patients will require a dental crown and bridge work to complete a smile transformation successfully. Begin with a dental visit to analyze your dental work and facial structure. From there, we can proceed with cosmetic procedures.
Do I Need a Dental Crown or a Bridge
If you have one or more teeth that are chipped, cracked, or missing, you may qualify for a dental crown or bridge. Our dental associates at Markiewicz Dental, led by Dr. David Markiewicz and Anthony Markiewicz, are ready to assist you. Begin with a comprehensive dental cleaning and checkup, followed by a diagnosis of any cosmetic dentistry.
Benefits of Dental Crowns and Bridges
The primary reason for having dental bridges and crowns is to replace missing teeth. Without teeth in the jaw bone, a patient’s smile is lost to shallow and sunken features. A single tooth is comparable to a soldier in a formation. When one tooth is lost, the rest of your teeth are unstable and more likely to shift. This results in a complete change in your bite and smile. Dental crowns and bridges repair the broken and missing teeth that are damaging to oral health.
