Love Your Smile Again With Dental Crowns and Bridges

At Jacaranda Family Dental, our experienced team use dental crowns and bridges to bring your smile back to life. Whether you’ve got missing teeth, damage to your teeth or want to improve the appearance of your tooth, we can make it happen.

What Are Dental Crowns and Bridges

WE USE CROWNS TO PROTECT WEAKENED TEETH, WHILE A DENTAL BRIDGE RESTORES MISSING TEETH

Dental crowns are tooth-coloured caps that fully encase your damaged tooth to protect and strengthen it. They can be made of ceramic, gold, or durable zirconia.

Bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth next to each other. They span the gap where teeth are missing and have artificial teeth fused between two dental crowns anchoring them.

Crowns reinforce cracked, broken, or extensively decayed teeth, helping to prevent further damage. They also cover up discolourations to give you a brighter smile.

Bridges fill in the gaps from missing teeth so your bite and smile keep their natural shape. The custom-made bridges perfectly match the colour of your natural teeth and blend seamlessly with your natural smile.

We hand-craft crowns and bridges so they’re sculpted specifically for your mouth and smile. The shape, size and shade of the teeth are tailored to blend in beautifully with your smile, while restoring strength and your bite pattern so you can speak, bite, and chew properly…and boost your smile confidence.

What Problems Can Dental Crowns and Bridges Solve?

f

Protecting fragile teeth
from further damage

Teeth that are cracked, broken, or severely decayed benefit from the reinforcement and protection that dental crowns and bridges offer. Without treatment, damaged teeth are prone to additional chipping and fracturing. This can lead to the inner tooth pulp being injured and requiring root canal therapy.

Dental crowns completely encase your damaged teeth to strengthen them against further cracks or breaks. They also prevent painful temperature sensitivities in teeth with thin, worn enamel. Your crown acts like a shield for vulnerable teeth that are already at risk.

Restores the natural shape of your smile

If you lose teeth over time, the surrounding teeth can tilt and shift into the empty spaces. This causes your bite alignment to change and allows food debris to collect in new hard-to-reach areas. It also gives your smile an aged, sunken appearance over time.

Dental bridges fill in gaps where one or more teeth are missing to preserve your bite and smile’s natural shape. The new teeth blend seamlessly, allowing you to eat, speak and smile normally again.

Improve how your teeth function

Lost teeth or severely damaged teeth can affect your ability to comfortably chew foods. The uneven bite forces more pressure onto fewer teeth, causing jaw pain and headaches. Dental crowns and bridges restore your ability to properly grind and bite into foods.

They also realign your jaws for even biting and increased comfort. So, you get to enjoy all your favourite foods again! By protecting fragile teeth and replacing missing ones, dental crowns and bridges restore the way your smile looks and functions, making you feel younger and more like your own self.

The Process To Fitting A Dental Crown and Bridge

Precision-fit for your smile

$

STEP ONE

Crafting a custom dental restoration combines technology and art. Our skilled team start with advanced 3D imaging to digitally map the delicate nuances of your smile. State-of-the-art intraoral scanners and X-rays provide clear, detailed images of your teeth and tissues. We then have an in-depth consultation to chat about your cosmetic goals, the tooth shade you desire, and the best material to suit your smile and your budget.
$

STEP TWO

Next, we use the digital blueprint of your mouth to design and hand-sculpt an incredibly life-like dental crown or bridge. Our master ceramist meticulously creates your custom restoration to protect and enhance your tooth/teeth. We select the right materials and shade to match your smile and to ensure long-lasting bonding onto your natural tooth structure.
$

STEP THREE

At your placement visit, we’ll make sure you have a comfortable and accurate fit. We can make slight adjustments before permanently cementing the crown or bridge onto your prepared tooth/teeth. Finally, we check your bite alignment and the restoration shade/contour against surrounding teeth. Regular dental visits will help the crown/bridge to function like natural teeth for many years.

With advanced technology and an artistic touch, our experienced team create precision-fit restorations tailored just for your smile.

Who Are Crowns and Bridges Best Suited For

CROWNS AND BRIDGES ARE A GREAT TREATMENT CHOICE IF YOU’VE GOT DAMAGED TEETH OR MISSING TEETH

Dental crowns reinforce and protect cracked, fractured or decayed teeth before further damage occurs.

They’re ideal for teeth that are:

  • $Cracked or fractured from injury or excessive grinding
  • $Weakened from large fillings or prior root canals
  • $Severely decayed and unable to support a filling
  • $Discoloured or misshapen for cosmetic reasons

Bridges restore your smile after one or more adjacent teeth are lost. You might want a bridge if you have healthy neighbouring teeth to securely anchor the bridge and want to fix:

  • $A gap where you’ve lost one, several or all teeth in a section or span
  • $A collapsed bite due to missing tooth/teeth
  • $Difficulty eating properly or speech impediment from missing teeth

 

Both dental crowns and bridges restore function and aesthetics in damaged or missing teeth. They resolve a wide range of issues to rebuild and enhance your one-of-a-kind smile.
