Crowns

Crowns

If you have a very decayed or damaged tooth then a dental crown could help restore look and function – allowing you to chew properly on the tooth without any discomfort.

A dental crown is a tailor made cover that is placed over a natural tooth in order to help cover it.

Crown are also often placed over a tooth that has had recent root canal treatment.

A crown enables us to restore strength to a tooth whilst also maintaining a natural feel and finish. Once you are used to it a crown will feel just the same as your other teeth- blending in perfectly as if it has always been there.

What is a crown made of?

Various materials can be used in the production of your crown. Often this will depend on where it will sit in your mouth. Very visible crowns can be made from porcelain or ceramic so that they look natural, whereas gold or metal alloys are often used for the back teeth where more strength and durability is required.

Either way, your crown will be matched in size and shape so that it fits perfectly alongside your existing teeth feeling comfortable, secure and strong.

Bridges

Bridges

Bridges are usually made of a precious metal. If the bridge will show, porcelain is then bonded to the base. Sometimes, there are other non-precious metals used in the base for strength.

Are bridges expensive?

Although a bridge may seem costly they can be a wise investment that will give many years of good service. It will also improve your appearance and bite. A bridge uses the considerable skill of the dentist and technician, and in this way, it’s similar to ordering a piece of hand-made jewellery.

How do I look after my bridge?

You need to clean your bridge every day, to prevent problems such as bad breath and gum disease. You also have to clean under the false tooth every day. Your dentist or hygienist will show you how to use a bridge needle or special floss, as a normal toothbrush cannot reach.
