Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are prosthetic devices that are cemented over an existing tooth or attached to a dental implant. The crown covers the entire damaged tooth to improve the shape or appearance of the natural tooth. When used with a dental implant, the crown replaces a missing tooth, improving the appearance and function of the tooth. Crowns are made from a variety of materials including porcelain, ceramic, and resin.
A dental crown can be used for:
- Strengthening a weak tooth
- Covering a tooth after root canal
- Covering a broken or cracked tooth
- Restoring worn teeth
- A tooth that requires a bridge
- A badly discolored tooth
- Covering a dental implant
Dental crowns require two visits to our office. At the first visit, your dentist will prepare your tooth for the crown. They will make an impression of the tooth and use it to create a custom crown in the dental lab. At the second visit, the dentist will position the new crown and attach it to your existing tooth using a special adhesive.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are used to replace two or more missing teeth in a row. The bridge contains the number of crowns needed to fill the gap where teeth are missing. Bridges can either be supported by the surrounding natural teeth or dental implants at either side of the gap. Bridges help to restore the appearance of your smile and the function of your teeth. Our Delaware County dentists can help you determine if a dental bridge is the right choice for you.
