Crowns & Bridges

Crowns & Bridges

Tooth loss can stem from dental decay, accidents, or the aging process, affecting your physical and emotional well-being. Fortunately, dental crowns and bridges are invaluable solutions for addressing tooth loss and damage.

At Peerzada Smiles, we use our modern technology and expertise to create custom restorations and help you reclaim your smile.

What Are Dental Crowns and Bridges?

A dental crown, often referred to as a cap, covers a damaged or decayed tooth and restores its strength, shape, and appearance. They can be made from porcelain, metal, or a combination of both.

A dental professional takes different impressions of your tooth, cleans the area, and fixes the crown for a permanent fit.

On the other hand, a dental bridge is a fixed appliance that replaces one or more missing teeth. It consists of artificial restorations, called pontics, that are anchored to adjacent natural teeth or dental implants.

When Do You Need Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are recommended in various situations, including:

• To protect a weak tooth from further damage.
• To restore a severely decayed or broken tooth.
• To cover a dental implant.
• To improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth.
• To support a dental bridge.

When Are Dental Bridges Necessary?

Dental bridges become necessary when you have one or more missing teeth and want to:

• Restore your smile and facial appearance.
• Regain the ability to chew and speak.
• Prevent adjacent teeth from shifting out of position.

How Long Do Dental Crowns and Bridges Last?

With proper care and maintenance, dental crowns and bridges can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years or more. However, their lifespan depends on factors like oral hygiene, wear and tear, and the materials used in their construction.
