Question 1

Restrengthen a Tooth

Accepted Answer

A damaged tooth is also weak, which makes it prone to further damage. Therefore, the best way to improve the durability and longevity of a tooth is to place a dental crown. Teeth that have had to undergo root canal treatment can also benefit from getting a dental crown.

While crowns are usually used to strengthen a tooth a crown can also provide cosmetic benefits, as well. A crown can cover a misshapen, malformed, or severely discolored tooth and improve its color, shape and size.

Question 3

A Long-Lasting Restoration

Accepted Answer

Crowns are made from strong, highest-quality materials, which mean that they could last up to 15 years as long as you properly care for your restoration and maintain good oral health.

Question 4

Prevent Teeth From Shifting

Accepted Answer

One of the complications associated with untreated tooth loss is the shifting of teeth into open gaps in your smile, which can lead to crooked teeth and other misalignments that only orthodontic treatment will be able to correct. To prevent this from happening altogether, it’s important to have a bridge or false tooth placed as soon as possible after losing a permanent tooth.

Question 5

Improved Chewing and Biting

Accepted Answer

When you lose one or more teeth you may notice that your bite may feel off. Unfortunately, this also means that some teeth have to handle more jaw pressure and chewing forces then is actually safe. Over time this can lead to fractures, cracks, and chips. By placing a dental bridge we can evenly distribute chewing forces to prevent injury.

Question 6

Improved Appearance

Accepted Answer

We know that having gaps in your smile can be embarrassing. Luckily, a dental bridge can be placed in as little as two appointments, which means that you can have a full, beautiful smile again quickly.
