What Are Crowns and Bridges and Who Needs Them?
Crowns and bridges are custom-made dental restorations designed for individuals looking to repair or replace damaged or missing teeth. Crowns, often referred to as ‘caps’, are used to cover a damaged tooth, enhancing its strength and appearance.
Bridges, on the other hand, fill the gap left by one or more missing teeth. These solutions are ideal for anyone wanting to improve their bite, speech, and overall smile aesthetics.
How Do Crown and Bridge Treatments Work?
The process begins with a detailed assessment of your oral health. For a crown, we prepare the damaged tooth, shaping it to securely fit the crown. For a bridge, crowns are placed on the teeth adjacent to the gap, and a false tooth (or teeth) is placed in between.
Both restorations are custom-made to match the colour and shape of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless, natural look.
What Can I Expect from the Treatment?
Your comfort is our priority throughout the treatment. The procedure for both crowns and bridges typically requires two visits – one for preparation and another for fitting the restoration. Our team uses advanced techniques and materials to ensure a comfortable experience with durable, long-lasting results.
They type of material needed for your crown depends on the strength and aesthetics desired. Zirconia crowns look beautiful and are perfect for back teeth as they are twice as strong as glass ceramic crowns. Glass ceramic crowns, on the other hand, are beautifully aesthetic and ideal for front teeth.
At Noosa Hinterland Dental Pomona – we use a highly trained and skilled ceramist on the Sunshine Coast to plan and construct our crowns and bridges. Taking the time to perfect, characterise and beautify your bespoke crown and bridge work means precision of fit, minimal preparation of your natural tooth, and completely natural looking and long-lasting new ceramic teeth.
Post-treatment, we’ll provide guidance on how to care for your new crown or bridge to ensure its longevity.
