At Smile Solutions Dental Clinic, We often recommend crowns and bridges as reliable solutions for restoring damaged or missing teeth. Crowns, also known as caps, are custom-made restorations that cover and protect a tooth that has been weakened due to decay, fracture, or after a root canal treatment. They help restore the tooth's strength, shape, and natural appearance. Bridges, on the other hand, are used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the adjacent natural teeth or crowns, effectively “bridging” the gap. These restorations are fixed in place and are not removable by the patient, offering a long-lasting and stable solution. If you have a damaged tooth that is still intact, a crown may be right for you. If you’ve lost a tooth and have healthy teeth on either side of the gap, a bridge could be an ideal option. During the treatment, the teeth are prepared and shaped, impressions are taken, and the final crown or bridge is crafted to match your natural tooth color. While a dental lab prepares your permanent restoration, a temporary crown or bridge may be placed. After the procedure, it’s normal to experience some sensitivity or mild gum soreness, which usually subsides in a few days and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. With proper care and regular check-ups, crowns and bridges can last many years and help restore your smile, confidence, and comfort. If you're unsure whether a crown or bridge is right for you, I invite you to visit Smile Solutions Dental Clinic for a personalized consultation
