Crowns & Bridges in Calgary NE
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a damaged, broken and root canal treated tooth, essentially completely covering the tooth and restoring it to its original shape and size. The goal is to enhance and strengthen the tooth and protect the tooth from fracture.
A dental bridge is essentially a false tooth that is held into place by the abutment teeth on either side of the gap. Bridges are used to replace one or multiple missing teeth in the same area, by joining to adjacent natural teeth or dental implants next to the teeth being treated.
Reasons for a Dental Crown include
- Broken, fractured, or chipped teeth/filling
- Cosmetic enhancement
- Discoloured teeth
- Root canal treated tooth
- Large fillings
- Tooth Sensitivity
Reasons for a Bridge include
- Fill the space for missing teeth
- Keep your remaining teeth from moving around
- Restore chewing and speaking ability
- Restore your smile
- Maintain facial shape
Why Choose Dental Crown?
The tooth that needs to be restored is filed down. Then an impression of the tooth is taken, which is used to custom make your final crown. Until the final crown is made, a temporary crown is placed to protect the tooth. A temporary crown may not have the same shape and color as a permanent crown. At your next visit, the temporary crown will be removed and the permanent crown is cemented in place to store function and appearance.
How long does a Dental Crown or Dental Bridge last?
The lifespan of dental crowns and bridges depends on factors like oral hygiene, materials used, and eating habits. On average:
- Dental crowns can last 10–15 years or longer with proper care.
- Dental bridges typically last 10–20 years, depending on maintenance and oral health.
- Good oral hygiene, regular dental check-ups, and avoiding hard foods can extend their durability.
