In the past, dentists relied on traditional metal crowns to repair damaged teeth. But this method was not always effective and resulted in a significant loss of natural tooth structure. Today, modern porcelain dental crowns are made to match your natural teeth and are more durable than metal.
Dental crowns can be used to:
A bridge is a fixed dental restoration that spans the space where one or more teeth are missing. Bridges are made of either porcelain, resin composite or gold alloys (called ‘gold-alloy’ bridges).
They are held in place by surrounding teeth or implants on each side of the gap. Bridges can be used to replace one or more missing teeth. They can also be used to support crowns and dentures.
Dental crowns and bridges are both dental restorations that can be used to replace missing teeth. They are similar in many ways, but there are a few key differences between them.
A bridge is a device that is custom-made to fit over two existing teeth on either side of a gap in your smile. It’s held in place by these two teeth, as well as by an anchor tooth on the opposite side of the gap. Bridges use artificial teeth (called pontics) to replace missing ones and fill any gaps in your smile.
At Albany Dental, our crowns and brides are high-quality and last for the long-term. Here are some tips to make sure you’re getting the most out of your crown or bridge.
Regular Cleaning: Your dentist will give you regular cleaning instructions after receiving a crown or bridge, and it’s crucial to follow them. If you don’t clean your teeth regularly, plaque can build up on top of the crown or bridge, which causes discolouration or cracking over time.
Brush Regularly: Even though you should be using floss after every meal, it’s also important to brush twice daily with toothpaste (once in the morning and once before bed). This will help keep bacteria from building up on top of your crown or bridge while also strengthening your other teeth.
If you are unsure whether you require a bridge or a crown, Albany Dental can help. We can conduct an expert consultation and discuss your options with you.
