One of the most effective cosmetic dentistry procedures used to save a damaged, flawed or unattractive smile is crown and bridge treatment. You’ve likely heard of dental crowns and dental bridges before due to how commonly they are used for a variety of procedures ranging from functional concerns to cosmetic. Virtually anyone who needs moderate to extensive dental work performed one or more teeth is a candidate for dental crowns and bridges and our team at the Cape Cod Dental Group in Chatham and Orleans makes sure to always provide the most esthetic and natural looking restorations.
Dr. Jenny Chang understands that when your teeth do not help you feel confident or are severely damaged, your quality of life suffers. Dental crowns and bridges are quick treatments that can completely rejuvenate your smile, improving both your health and esthetics. We will always do our best to fit you into our schedule when you need us most. Your smile should never have to suffer when such an easy treatment is available!
Crowns are typically fabricated out of ceramic or porcelain material and designed to look just like a natural tooth that will blend seamlessly into your smile. While the outside looks like a tooth, the inside is hollow so that it can fit over your existing tooth (with a little bit of adjustment done to your natural tooth). The crown not only protects your natural tooth, but it also restores full biting and chewing function as well as giving you the esthetic appearance of a healthy smile.
When you are missing one or more teeth, there is an unattractive gap in your smile. This gap, if left untreated, can cause surrounding teeth to shift into the area and change your bite, cause jaw bone deterioration, and make it more difficult to eat properly. Nobody wants that, right? Dental bridges are a collection of multiple dental crowns fused together to span the gap of missing teeth. Once in place, they replace the function and look of real teeth.
Many times, we can replace missing teeth with dental implants, a more permanent solution to tooth loss. Dental crowns and bridges can be secured to implants, giving you the lifelike look of natural teeth with the health benefits implants provide your smile. We are even able to attach a dental bridge to one or more implants for a healthier way to replace multiple missing teeth that doesn’t involve altering healthy abutment teeth.
Dental crowns and bridges are often used during smile makeover treatments for both their functional and cosmetic dentistry benefits. With a smile makeover, our team can help you create your most beautiful smile yet, and often that involves restoring one or more teeth with a dental crown or bridge. As a versatile dental treatment, your crowns and bridges can give you the look you want with the oral function you need. And the best part? Dental crowns and bridges can often be created and placed in just two appointments, saving you time on appointments and dental visits.
