Frequently asked questions
A crown is a piece of metal, plastic, ceramic, or porcelain that covers a damaged tooth. It’s crafted to look like the original tooth and can enhance your tooth’s appearance and stability. A crown acts as a protective covering and is sealed in place with dental cement.
The experienced dentists at Luna Dental could suggest a crown for several reasons, such as to:
Whether you need to improve the look of your smile or the functionality of a tooth, talk with your dentist to see if a crown is right for you.
A bridge is used to bridge the gap of one or more missing teeth. This dental device consists of two crowns that attach to your teeth, and an artificial tooth in the middle to fill in the empty gap.
Your dentist can surgically insert a dental implant into your gums to support an artificial tooth. He uses a bone-grafting procedure, which involves grafting bone from another area of your body onto your jawbone to secure dental-implant placement.
The majority of the time, two appointments are required to complete dental-crown or dental-bridge procedures. During the first appointment, your Luna Dental professional takes X-rays to determine the health of teeth that require crowns or bridges.
Next, your dentist administers anesthesia, and files down or builds up the tooth prior to crown placement. Your dentist might also insert a dental implant to secure a bridge. He takes an impression of your teeth, which is sent to a dental lab where a custom crown or bridge is created.
Your dentist fabricates temporary crowns to safeguard your teeth until a permanent crown or bridge is ready for placement. If you’d like to find out if a crown or bridge is right for you, contact the experienced dental professionals at Luna Dental or make an appointment online today.
