What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom cap that covers and protects the visible surfaces of a weak or damaged tooth. At Barr Family Dentistry, we offer the highest quality dental crown materials, including porcelain, zirconia, and e-max. Our restorations not only provide seamless results but also withstand the test of time.
Why Would You Need a Dental Crown?
Dr. Barr may recommend a dental crown for the following purposes:
- To support a tooth weakened by deep decay or a large filling
- To protect a tooth that’s undergone a root canal treatment
- To restore a tooth that’s cracked, broken, or severely worn, preventing further damage
- To replace one or several missing teeth by covering a dental implant or providing support for a dental bridge
- To improve the appearance of a discolored, misshapen, or poorly aligned tooth
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is an oral prosthetic device used to replace one or more neighboring teeth, bridging a gap in your smile. At Barr Family Dentistry, we offer porcelain bridges meticulously crafted to match your natural teeth, providing both aesthetic and functional benefits.
What Are the Benefits of Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges offer numerous advantages, including the following:
- They restore your complete smile with beautifully natural results.
- They improve your chewing function, allowing you to enjoy more of your favorite foods.
- They help you speak more clearly and confidently.
- They prevent the neighboring teeth from shifting, preserving the alignment of your bite.
- They redistribute the forces of your bite, lowering your risk of periodontal disease, tooth wear or fracture, and even TMJ pain.
- They enhance the health and appearance of your smile.
What Is the Dental Crown or Bridge Procedure?
When placing a dental crown, Dr. Barr will start by numbing the area and preparing the affected tooth by removing some of its structure to accommodate your new restoration. The dental bridge procedure is similar, involving the preparation of the teeth on either side of the gap.
Dr. Barr will take impressions of the area, which skilled lab technicians will use to create your new dental crown or bridge. In the meantime, a temporary restoration will protect your prepared tooth or teeth. When your crown or bridge is ready, Dr. Barr will ensure a perfect fit and color match before cementing it in place. She will make any needed adjustments for optimal comfort and function. With proper care, your new crown or bridge will keep your smile at its best for many years to come.
