Dental Crowns — Restoration and Protection for Damaged Teeth
A dental crown is a cap placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength and appearance. We may recommend a crown if you have a tooth that is significantly damaged or decayed, and we can also use them to improve the appearance of a discoloured or oddly shaped tooth.
Dental Crown Procedure
Getting a crown usually requires two visits to the dentist in Deakin. During the first visit, we examine the tooth and prepare it for treatment. This involves reshaping the tooth to ensure a proper fit for the crown. We take an impression of the tooth and send it to a dental lab, where your crown will be custom-made. In the meantime, the dentist will place a temporary crown to protect the tooth.
At the second visit, your Deakin dentist will remove the temporary crown and fit the permanent one, making any necessary adjustments to ensure a comfortable fit. The crown is then cemented in place, fully encasing the tooth.
Dental Bridges in Deakin — A Solution for Missing Teeth
Dental bridges are used to fill the gap created by one or more missing teeth. A bridge consists of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap and a replacement artificial tooth in between. Depending on the individual patient’s needs and goals, these replacement teeth can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain or a combination of these materials.
Dental Bridge Procedure
Similar to crowns, getting a bridge typically involves two dentist visits. The first appointment involves preparing the abutment teeth (the teeth on either side of the gap). These teeth are reshaped to receive the crowns that will support the bridge. We take impressions of the teeth, which serve as a model from which a dental lab will make the bridge, crowns and pontics (replacement) teeth.
During your second visit, we will check and adjust your custom-made bridge to ensure a proper fit. Once the fit is confirmed, the dentist will cement the bridge into place.
Crowns and bridges are highly durable and can last many years with proper care, which includes good oral hygiene practices and regular dental check-ups at your Deakin dental clinic, Yarra Smiles.
