Revitalize Your Smile With Dental Crown & Bridge Treatment

Dental crowns and bridges are two procedures that can be used to improve the appearance of your smile and restore functionality to your teeth. Crowns are caps that are placed over existing teeth, while bridges involve attaching artificial teeth to adjacent natural teeth. Both procedures can be utilized to correct a variety of dental problems, including cracked or chipped teeth, misshapen teeth, and gaps between teeth.

If you think you may benefit from a dental crown or bridge, the first step is to schedule a consultation with our team at West Delray Smiles in Delray Beach. We’ll assess your smile and determine if dental crown & bridge treatment may be right for you!

What Are The Benefits Of Dental Crowns & Bridges?

Crowns and bridges offer many benefits, including improved aesthetics and restored chewing function. They can also help prevent further damage to existing teeth. Crowns and bridges are typically made from porcelain or ceramic materials, which closely match the color of natural teeth. This makes them an ideal choice for people who are looking to improve the appearance of their smile.

What’s Involved With Dental Crown & Bridge Treatment?

For crowns, the tooth will be prepared by removing any damaged or decayed tissue. Once the tooth has been prepared, an impression will be taken and used to create your porcelain dental crown. We’ll place a temporary filling on the area and have you return to our office once your final crown is complete. During that appointment, we’ll check the color and fit of your final crown, and secure it on your prepared tooth once we’ve confirmed it looks and feels great.

For bridges, we’ll prepare your adjacent teeth for crowns by removing any damage or decay. Next, an impression will be taken and used to create your bridge. We’ll place temporary fillings on these teeth and we’ll have you return to our office once your final bridge is complete. During that appointment, we’ll check the color and fit of your final bridge and, once satisfied, we’ll secure it in place over your prepared teeth.

Who Is A Good Candidate For Dental Crown & Bridge Treatment?

These restorative services can be a great option for patients with missing teeth and/or significantly damaged or weakened teeth. If you are considering either option, call us and we’ll schedule a thorough consultation to determine if you’re a candidate!
