What are Dental Crowns and Bridges?

Are you all too familiar with the discomfort of concealing your smile due to dental imperfections? Whether it’s a cracked tooth or a noticeable gap, these issues can impact your self-esteem and oral health.Whether enhancing the appearance of damaged teeth or filling the gaps left by missing ones, dental crowns and bridges in Ajman offer many benefits beyond just a picture-perfect smile.

Dental crowns and bridges in Ajman are common restorative dental treatments that repair and replace damaged or missing teeth. 

Both dental crowns and bridges are fixed dental devices that are attached to your teeth or dental implants by a dentist. These treatments help improve a person’s mouth’s appearance, function, and overall health.

 
 

How do Dental Crowns Work?

Dental crowns in Ajman are prosthetic devices used to fully cover or “cap” a damaged tooth. Besides strengthening a damaged tooth, a crown can be used to restore its appearance, shape, size, or alignment. 

These crowns can be made from various materials, including ceramics, porcelain, gold, metal alloys, acrylic and ceramic. Often, porcelain crowns are fused to metal shells, combining strength with aesthetic appeal.

How do Dental Bridges Work?

  • Dental bridges in Ajman are used to replace missing teeth by filling the space between existing teeth or dental implants. 
  • Dental bridges comprise artificial teeth held in place using dental crowns attached to neighboring natural teeth or dental implants.

Will the Dental Crown and Bridge Be Noticeable?

At Bliss Medical Center, our dentist will record the shade of the adjacent teeth to ensure that the dental crown or bridge closely matches your natural teeth’ appearance.

A temporary dental crown or bridge, usually made of plastic, will be fitted temporarily at the end of the first appointment and remain until the permanent restoration is ready. These temporary restorations are usually noticeable, unlike the permanent ones.

 

How are the Dental Crowns and Bridges in Ajman Made?

Dental crowns and bridges are custom-made to suit each patient’s specific needs and dental condition. Here’s an overview of how crowns and bridges are made:

Tooth Preparation

  • Before either a crown or a bridge can be made, the tooth must be reduced or reshaped so that the crown or bridge will fit over it properly. 

Impressions

  • The impression of the prepared tooth is taken to create a precise mold for the crown or bridge. 

Custom fabrication

  • Using the impression, a dental lab creates your crown or bridge. Often, color matching is done so that the crown or bridge blends seamlessly with your normal teeth.

Temporary restoration

  • A temporary crown or bridge will be temporarily placed to cover the prepared tooth while the permanent restoration is being made. 

Cementation

  • Once the permanent restoration is complete, the temporary crown or bridge is taken off, and the new restoration is cemented over your prepared tooth or teeth.
