What to Know About Caps, Crowns, and Bridges
What are caps, crowns, and bridges?
Caps and Crowns
These are restorative covers placed over damaged or decayed teeth to protect and strengthen them while improving appearance. Crowns are often made from porcelain, ceramic, or metal and are custom-shaped to match your natural teeth.
Bridges
These are fixed dental prosthetics that fill the gap created by one or more missing teeth. Anchored by crowns on adjacent teeth, bridges restore both the function and look of your smile.
Why would I need a crown or bridge?
The most common reasons you may need a crown or bridge are to:
- Restore teeth that are cracked, broken, or severely decayed
- Cover a dental implant
- Replace a large filling when there isn't enough tooth remaining
- Protect a weakened tooth from fracturing
- Attach a dental bridge to replace missing teeth
Are caps, crowns, and bridges durable?
Absolutely! Our crowns and bridges are crafted from high-quality, long-lasting materials that can withstand the forces of chewing and biting. With proper care, they can last many years.
Is the procedure painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. We use local anesthesia to numb the area, and sedation options are available for those who feel anxious. The process typically involves preparing the affected teeth, taking impressions, and placing the final restoration once it’s ready.
How do I care for my new crown or bridge?
The best step is to simply maintain good oral hygiene! Continue brushing daily, especially around the restored area. You can hold off on flossing for a day or two; when you floss around the crown, be careful not to use too much force.
Avoid chewing on hard objects and schedule regular check-ups to ensure your restorations remain in good condition.
