What is Bridges & Crowns?

Bridges and crowns are dental prosthetic devices used to restore damaged or missing teeth. Bridges span the gap left by missing teeth, with artificial teeth (pontics) supported by crowns on adjacent teeth. Crowns, also called caps, are fitted over weakened or damaged teeth to restore their strength, shape, and appearance.

Both bridges and crowns are custom-made to match the natural color and shape of teeth, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution. They can improve oral function, enhance the smile’s appearance, and contribute to overall dental health.

Benefits of Bridges & Crowns

Restoration of Function

Bridges and crowns restore the ability to bite, chew, and speak properly, especially in cases where teeth are damaged or missing.

Improved Aesthetics

These dental prosthetics are designed to match the color, shape, and size of natural teeth, enhancing the appearance of the smile.

Prevention of Shifting Teeth

By filling in gaps caused by missing teeth, bridges and crowns help prevent adjacent teeth from shifting out of position, maintaining proper alignment.

Preservation of Jaw Structure

Bridges and crowns can help preserve the structure of the jawbone by distributing the forces exerted during chewing, preventing bone loss.

Longevity

With proper care, bridges and crowns can last for many years, providing a long-term solution for damaged or missing teeth.

Protection of Weak Teeth

Crowns can protect weak, cracked, or damaged teeth from further deterioration, extending their lifespan.

The Aesthetic Edge Bridges & Crowns Treatment Process

BEFORE
  • Evaluation: The dentist evaluates the patient’s oral health, taking X-rays and impressions of the teeth to plan the treatment.
  • Treatment Planning: A treatment plan is developed based on the evaluation, outlining the type of bridge or crown needed and the preparation required for the procedure.
DURING
  • Tooth Preparation: For crowns, the tooth is reshaped to accommodate the crown. For bridges, the adjacent teeth are prepared to support the bridge.
  • Impressions: Impressions of the prepared teeth are taken to create custom-fitted bridges or crowns.
  • Temporary Restoration: Temporary crowns or bridges may be placed to protect the prepared teeth while the final restorations are being fabricated.
AFTER
  • Placement of Final Restoration: The custom-fabricated bridge or crown is placed and adjusted for fit and bite.
  • Follow-Up Care: Follow-up appointments are scheduled to ensure the bridges or crowns are functioning properly and to address any issues.
  • Oral Care: Patients are advised on proper oral hygiene practices to maintain the health of the restored teeth and prevent future issues.
  • Long-Term Maintenance: Regular dental check-ups are essential for monitoring the condition of the bridges and crowns and ensuring their longevity.

FAQs for the Bridges & Crowns Treatment

Bridges are dental prostheses used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth (pontics) to adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Crowns, also known as caps, are tooth-shaped coverings that are placed over damaged or weakened teeth to restore their function and appearance.

With proper care and maintenance, bridges and crowns can last for many years, often a decade or more. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene practices are essential for their longevity.

Modern bridges and crowns are designed to closely match the color, shape, and size of natural teeth, making them virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth.

Dental insurance coverage for bridges and crowns varies by plan. Some plans may cover a portion of the cost, while others may have limitations or exclusions. It’s best to check with your insurance provider for details about your coverage.

The process of placing bridges and crowns involves several steps, including tooth preparation, impressions, fabrication of the restoration, and final placement. The exact procedure may vary depending on the individual case and the type of restoration needed.
