Dental Crowns and Bridges in Thornhill
Overview
Dental crowns and bridges are time-tested restorative solutions designed to repair damaged teeth and replace missing ones. These custom-made prosthetics not only restore function but also enhance the appearance of your smile, helping you maintain a strong and healthy bite.
Dental Crowns: Strengthening and Protecting Teeth
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that covers and protects a weakened or damaged tooth. It restores the tooth’s structure, function, and appearance while preventing further damage.
When is a Crown needed?
Our Thornhill dentist may recommend a dental crown if you have:
✔ A tooth weakened by decay or large fillings
✔ A cracked, chipped, or worn-down tooth
✔ A tooth that has undergone root canal therapy
✔ A missing tooth that needs support for a dental bridge
✔ A cosmetic concern that requires an aesthetic enhancement
Types of Dental Crown
Crowns are made from various materials, each offering unique benefits:
1
Blend seamlessly with natural teeth for an aesthetically pleasing result.
2
Known for their durability and strength.
3
Offer a balance of strength and natural appearance.
4
Often used as temporary crowns or for patients with metal allergies.
Our team will help you choose the best material based on your dental needs and aesthetic preferences.
Dental Bridges: Replacing Missing Teeth
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by using adjacent teeth or implants for support. It consists of artificial teeth, known as pontics, anchored by abutment teeth on either side.
Why Choose a Dental Bridge?
Dental bridges offer several advantages, including:
✔ Preventing neighboring teeth from shifting into empty spaces
✔ Restoring the ability to chew and speak properly
✔ Enhancing the appearance of your smile
✔ Maintaining proper bite alignment
Types of Dental Bridges
Just like crowns, bridges are available in different materials:
1
Best for a natural look that blends with surrounding teeth.
2
Offer durability with an aesthetically pleasing finish.
3
A strong and long-lasting solution for replacing multiple missing teeth without relying on natural teeth for support.
