Crowns & Bridges

At Smiline Dental, we are dedicated to restoring your smile and ensuring that your teeth remain functional and beautiful. If you have damaged or missing teeth, crowns and bridges are two effective solutions that can help restore both the appearance and strength of your smile. Our experienced team will work with you to determine the best treatment plan to meet your needs, providing long-lasting, natural-looking results.

What Are Crowns?

A dental crown, also known as a "cap," is a custom-made restoration that covers and protects a damaged tooth. Crowns are often used when a tooth has been weakened by decay, fractures, or large fillings and cannot be restored with a regular filling. Crowns are made from durable materials like porcelain or ceramic, which can be color-matched to your natural teeth for a seamless appearance.

Why Are Crowns Important?

Crowns protect and enhance your dental health by strengthening weak teeth, restoring those with large fillings or root canals, and improving the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth. They help restore the natural shape, size, and function of your smile.

What Does the Crown and Bridge Process Involve?

At Smiline Dental, the process for both crowns and bridges is straightforward and typically involves two appointments:

First appointment – Preparation: The affected tooth (or teeth) is prepared by shaping it to accommodate the crown or bridge. For bridges, the adjacent teeth are also prepared. Impressions of your teeth are taken and sent to a lab to create a custom-fit restoration.

Temporary crown or bridge: While your permanent restoration is being fabricated, a temporary crown or bridge is placed to protect your teeth.

Second appointment – Placement: Once your custom crown or bridge is ready, it is cemented in place and adjusted for a perfect fit. Our dentist will ensure that your new restoration blends seamlessly with your natural teeth and restores your bite comfortably.

What Happens After Crowns or Bridges Are Placed?

After your crown or bridge is placed, you’ll receive detailed instructions on how to care for your new restoration. With proper care and regular dental checkups, crowns and bridges can last many years. It's important to maintain good oral hygiene, including brushing and flossing, to prevent decay around the restored teeth and ensure the longevity of your crown or bridge.

At Smiline Dental, we are committed to helping you achieve a strong, healthy, and beautiful smile. Whether you need a crown to protect a damaged tooth or a bridge to replace missing teeth, our team is here to provide you with the highest quality care. Let us help you restore your smile and confidence with durable, natural-looking crowns and bridges.
