What are Crowns & Bridges?
Crowns and bridges are dental restorations that can help restore damaged or missing teeth.
- Crowns: A crown is a cap that is placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength.
- Bridges: A bridge is a dental appliance that replaces missing teeth with artificial teeth that are anchored to adjacent healthy teeth.
Dental Problems That Crowns & Bridges Can Address
Crowns and bridges can be used to address a variety of dental problems, including:
Severe Tooth Decay:
Cavities: When tooth decay progresses to a point where it threatens the tooth's structural integrity, a crown can be used to protect the remaining tooth structure and prevent further damage.
Abscesses: If a tooth becomes infected and develops an abscess, a crown can be placed over the tooth after root canal treatment to seal off the infection and prevent future complications.
Cracked or Broken Teeth:
Fractures: Crowns can be used to restore cracked or broken teeth to their original shape and function. This can help prevent further damage and discomfort.
Chips: Even small chips can weaken a tooth and make it more susceptible to decay. A crown can restore the tooth's appearance and strength.
Missing Teeth
Gaps: When a tooth is missing, it can affect your bite, speech, and appearance. A bridge can be used to replace the missing tooth with a prosthetic tooth that is anchored to the adjacent teeth.
Esthetics: Bridges can help improve the overall appearance of your smile by filling in gaps and restoring your natural bite.
Teeth that Have Undergone Root Canal Treatment
Weakened Teeth: After a root canal procedure, a tooth can become weakened and more susceptible to fractures. A crown can protect the tooth and restore its strength.
Sensitivity: Crowns can help reduce sensitivity in teeth that have undergone root canal treatment.
In addition to these specific problems, crowns and bridges can also be used to:
- Improve the appearance of discoloured or misshapen teeth
- Correct bite problems
