Dental Crowns: Restoring Your Smile
A Dental Crown is a cap that covers the entire tooth. Dr. Sulbha Midha often uses a crown to fix a broken tooth, but it can also be used for cosmetic enhancements. A crown can be made from three materials: all-metal, ceramic-on-metal, or all-ceramic. The choice of material depends on the tooth’s location; for front teeth, all-ceramic crowns are preferred due to their natural appearance.
Dental Bridges for Missing Teeth
A dental bridge is a tooth replacement option. At Healthy Smiles Dental Care, we provide dental bridges to customers who wish to replace a tooth without wearing dentures or having surgery. This method involves securing the replacement tooth with two crowns. It has a natural appearance and is made of ceramic or porcelain to complement the surrounding teeth. Dr. Sulbha Midha, as a cosmetic dentist, will ensure that the replacement tooth not only looks good but also feels great.
The Process of Getting a Dental Crown: What to Expect
We recommend teeth whitening before undergoing dental crowns or a dental bridge for cosmetic reasons. It's essential to complete this procedure first, since the material used in crowns and bridges is resistant to stains and bleaching. By having the procedure done first, your new crown or bridge will be designed to match your teeth.
Healthy Smiles Dental Care begins by prepping the tooth before installing a dental crown. It involves removing some portion of the enamel to allow the new crown to fit correctly without affecting the surrounding teeth. Subsequently, we will clean the tooth and use a removable adhesive to fix a temporary crown. Patients often wear a temporary crown for two weeks while waiting for the permanent crown to be crafted in the lab.
To determine if this procedure suits you, contact (513) 339-1032 and speak with Dr. Sulbha Midha about your alternatives. At Healthy Smiles Dental Care, we create smiles that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also fully functional.
