At Park Blvd Dentistry, we offer crowns and bridges for our patients.
Dental crowns and bridges are important restorative dental solutions that play a role in preserving and enhancing the functionality and aesthetics of your smile.
Dental crowns, also known as "caps," are custom-made coverings that encase a damaged or weakened tooth, providing protection and support while restoring its natural appearance and strength.
Dental bridges are used to replace missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth (pontics) to adjacent healthy teeth or dental implants. These prosthetic devices not only fill gaps in your smile but also ensure proper bite alignment, improve speech, and prevent surrounding teeth from shifting.
Both crowns and bridges are made from durable materials Emax or Zirconia. Dental crowns and bridges blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing a long-lasting, functional, and aesthetically pleasing solution for dental issues.
Whether you need to repair a damaged tooth or restore your complete smile, our dental office offers expertly designed crowns and bridges to help you achieve optimal oral health and confidence in your smile.
A bridge might be recommended if you have a missing tooth causing a gap between your teeth. Not every missing tooth can be replaced with an implant. Missing teeth can cause other problems and can make talking and chewing more difficult. If you have a missing tooth that goes untreated, the surrounding teeth may begin to shift into the empty space which will ultimately affect your bite. When "bridging" a gap where you have missing teeth, the final restoration is called a bridge. The adjacent teeth to the missing tooth are trimmed down and "capped" with crowns. The replacement tooth, called a pontic, is attached to those crowns to form the bridge.
