Custom-Made Dental Crowns
A crown is a dental procedure that involves installing an artificial tooth "cap" over an existing tooth. While most dental crowns are made of a tooth-colored porcelain, ceramic, or resin, you may be able to select a different material to reinforce your tooth. The process of installing a crown is relatively quick, involving anesthesia, preparation of the tooth through filing, and the making of an impression. This impression is then sent to a lab, which will customize a crown that fits your tooth perfectly.
Crowns are installed in your mouth for many reasons, including:
- Repair broken teeth
- Reinforce decaying teeth
- Cover misshapen teeth
- Cover discolored teeth
- Loss of old filling leading to structural damage
- Restore teeth after root canals and other surgical procedures
- Reinforce teeth when weakened from any other kind of structural damage
Fill in Gaps with a Bridge
For patients who would rather not undergo the surgical procedure that an implant requires, bridges are an excellent alternative. Where an implant requires drilling into the jawbone in order to establish a post, the bridge is more like a cap that is placed over the two teeth that border a gap. For example, if you are missing one tooth, your bridge would be composed of three artificial teeth. Two of the teeth "snap" over your existing teeth, and the artificial tooth fills the gap in the middle. This process does involve a shaping of your existing teeth in order to help cement the bridge in place.
