ABOUT OUR DENTAL CROWNS
Dental crowns are a great solution for misshapen, broken, or discolored teeth because they fit snuggly over a tooth, creating a natural-looking, lasting result. When a tooth is receiving a dental crown, we will file it down, make a mold, and fit your tooth with a temporary protective piece. At your next appointment, we will cement your permanent, customized crown, restoring your smile and boosting your self-esteem.
ABOUT OUR DENTAL BRIDGES
If you are looking to fill in one or more gaps in your smile, dental bridges may be the best solution for you! They are great options for replacing missing teeth and give your smile a fuller look and feel. At Vayner Family Dentistry, getting a bridge placed is similar to getting a dental crown. We first make an impression of your teeth, apply a temporary piece, and then have you visit a second time to place the permanent bridge. The final result: A lasting smile you can’t wait to show off!
DENTAL BRIDGES & CROWNS FAQ
Are Dental Bridges and Crowns Permanent?
Dental bridges can be permanent if supported by implants. However, if you are receiving the bridge without implant support, it will not be secured to the jaw and will be able to be removed from your mouth. Implant-supported dentures are the best for a permanent solution to missing gaps.
Dental crowns are a permanent solution to cracked, damaged, misshapen, or discolored teeth. They are fixed prosthetics that are permanently cemented onto the tooth. With proper care, they can last a lifetime.
Are Dental Crowns Painful?
When your teeth are being filed down, it is not uncommon to feel a bit of discomfort. To keep you comfortable, the area in which we are filing will be numbed. After the tooth is filed down, the remainder of the process should be painless.
Our team will give you specific aftercare instructions to help make sure your crown stays healthy. If you have any pain or discomfort after it is placed, call our office to schedule a follow-up appointment.
