Zirconia Crowns and Bridges
Crowns: Think of them as "hats" for your teeth! Crowns are custom-made caps that sit over a damaged, weakened, or misshapen tooth. They can:
- Restore strength and function: Protect a cracked tooth, rebuild a worn tooth, or hold a bridge in place.
- Improve appearance: Cover discoloration or gaps for a more confident smile.
- Dental implants: Serve as the "crown" on top of an implant post for a natural-looking replacement tooth.
Bridge: Think of them as "connectors" for missing teeth! Bridges are like mini bridges that "bridge" the gap between missing teeth using crowns on surrounding teeth for support. They can:
- Replace one or more missing teeth: Restore your smile and chewing ability.
- Improve speech and prevent teeth from shifting: Maintain proper bite and facial structure.
- Made from various materials: Porcelain, zirconia, or gold for aesthetics and durability.
