Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are protective coverings that are placed over damaged, decayed, or weakened teeth to reinforce the remaining tooth structure. Additionally, they also provide long-lasting protection against further damage, preserving your natural teeth for as long as possible. These restorations can address multiple dental issues, such as severely decayed, damaged, broken, fractured, or root-canal-treated teeth.
Our professionals design customized dental crowns in Houston, TX, using durable materials like porcelain, metal, or a combination of both. Apart from restoring the functions of your teeth, a crown also enhances the cosmetic appeal of your smile. With proper care and oral hygiene maintenance, these restorations can last for several years, giving you a healthy and confident smile.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge offers a prosthetic replacement for adjacent missing teeth. It comprises one or a few more artificial teeth called pontics, anchored in place by adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. The tooth-shaped caps that cover the supporting teeth are known as abutments. Unlike removable dentures, it provides a fixed replacement for missing teeth, restoring your oral health and functionality.
At our Houston, TX, facility, we offer custom-fabricated dental bridges designed to mimic the functions and aesthetics of your natural teeth. They improve various oral functions, allowing you to bite, chew, and speak more comfortably. We also ensure that the bridge aligns with your natural bite so that it does not disturb the alignment of your teeth.
Question About Dental Crowns & Bridges
Procedure of Dental Crowns and Bridges
During your initial assessment, our dentist will examine your damaged or missing teeth to determine the best type of restoration for your oral needs. The procedure for crowns and bridges is comfortable and generally requires two visits. In the first visit, we will trim a thin layer of the enamel to make room for the desired restoration. Our dentist will anesthetize your teeth before the procedure to avoid pain and discomfort.
After preparing your teeth, we will take dental impressions and send them to a lab. Once the crown or bridge is ready, our dentist will evaluate its fit before bonding it to the prepared teeth. Within two appointments, you will be ready to smile confidently and enjoy your favorite foods again!
