Dental Crowns and Dental Bridges in Hollywood, Florida
For many of us, a trip to the dentist can require more than a routine cleaning. There are circumstances that arise that may involve more invasive dental work. Sometimes this can be in the form of dental crowns and dental bridges.
What is a dental crown?
A dental crown may sound a lot fancier than it really is. It is a specially crafted cap made to fit over a damaged tooth or to cover an implant. The crown helps to restore the tooth’s size and shape so that it can still be functional in your mouth. Crowns are often used after root canal therapy as well as to restore teeth that are broken or weakened by decay. They are made from a variety of different materials.
What is a dental bridge?
If you’re missing teeth, your dentist may suggest a dental bridge to “bridge” the gap the missing teeth have left in your mouth. A dental bridge is a combination of dental crowns and false teeth. In order for a bridge to work effectively, there has to be the perfect amount of space available in the mouth for it to fit. That’s why it’s crucial to have an experience dentist, like Dr. Karen Gordon, overseeing the procedure.
A well placed crown or bridge can last 15 years if it is maintained properly.
