Repair and Rejuvenate Your Smile with Crowns and Bridges

Teeth that are damaged, decayed, or missing can cause several frustrating issues. If you’re dealing with a cracked tooth, severe decay, or gaps from lost teeth, it can be difficult to chew properly, leading to discomfort or pain while eating. Not to mention, these dental issues can affect the appearance of your smile, leaving you feeling self-conscious.

But don’t worry—crowns and bridges are here to help! A dental crown can restore a damaged tooth’s shape, size, and strength, while a bridge can fill in the gap left by a missing tooth, effectively restoring both function and aesthetics. With these solutions, you can regain the ability to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and smile confidently again!

What Are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown in Denver, CO is a tooth cap crafted from porcelain or zirconia that restores a compromised tooth’s function, shape, and strength. If a cavity goes unchecked, oral bacteria continue to impact the tooth enamel and dentin. There may not be adequate tooth structure after removing decay to support a filling, in which case a dental crown is required.

When a tooth is too discolored or misshapen to restore with a porcelain veneer, a tooth crown is often the best option. Last, a root canal weakens the interior tooth structure, and a crown is necessary to protect it from future fracture and extraction.

The process starts by trimming and reshaping your tooth to create an ideal base for the crown. Digital impressions of your bite are taken to craft a temporary crown on-site and sent to the dental lab to fabricate your final tooth crown.

What Are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge in Denver, CO is a fixed prosthetic that bridges the gap left by one or more missing teeth. A dental bridge involves placing crowns on adjacent teeth to anchor the false (pontic) tooth. The process for placing traditional bridges at Sloan’s Lake Dental is similar to dental crowns.

Dental bridges improve your chewing ability and speech, eliminating sensitivity and issues that can impact adjacent teeth. But unless you receive an implant-supported bridge, bone loss continues under the false tooth without a tooth root to stimulate your jawbone.
