Chances are you are thinking of having a dental crown, more than one crown or a permanent bridge built. To ensure the best possible and effective results, your cooperation and understanding are very important to us. On this page we will take you, step by step, through the crown of teeth and the treatment of the bridge. Why Replace Missing Teeth? Tooth loss can be a social and psychological concern.
Teeth are lost for a number of reasons, including:
- Tooth decay
- Periodontal disease (gum).
- Trauma (injury or accident)
When a permanent tooth loses, the neighboring teeth are affected. Because the strength of the support and chewing are changed, the remaining teeth will begin to change. The tooth above or below the missing tooth will begin to rise out of its base. This accelerates periodontal disease (gum) and causes further deterioration of the dental arch. If the missing tooth can be replaced, more teeth will eventually be lost, due to the negative energy gained during chewing.
What Is Treatment Of Dental And Bridge?
A dental crown and bridge treatment are a long-term way to replace lost teeth.
A tooth crown is placed on each bird, (like a tip on your finger) when there is not enough tooth structure left to fill the filling.
A toothbrush opens a gap where one or more teeth are lost in the dental arch. The teeth at each end of the span are crowned, and they are called abutments. The false teeth on the bridge that join the abutments are called pontics. Dental crowns and dental bridges are usually made of high-quality materials such as precious metals (gold), precious metals, porcelain or a combination of metal and porcelain.
Both beauty (appearance) and function are considered when selecting the most suitable function. The cost of a dental crown given by a dentist is affordable.
How To Be Treated?
At the first dental appointment, a complete oral examination, a history of your dental history and the necessary X-rays are completed. Diagnosis is based on these three factors. Once it has been determined that the dental crown and the treatment of the bridge are indicated, it will be set for a series of appointments.
Note: It is important to keep all of these appointments.
You see, your dental crown process takes place in an orderly fashion. Deficiency or postponement of your appointment may result in delayed treatment, allowing further tooth movement before treatment is completed.
What Will Happen?
The tooth or teeth to be treated should be anesthetic. Sometimes you can expect the side of your face to feel numb, too. Next, during the preparation phase, your crown or teeth will be crowned and cut down. This allows enough space for the crown or bridge to fit. After this preparation phase is completed, a view of the area of your mouth is taken. Your teeth will be covered for a while until your next time.
During the next appointment, the crown or bridge is adjusted so that it fits snugly, before being permanently placed. It is usually necessary to carefully cut and polish a new crown or bridge.
Other factors to consider include:
- Beauty - matching color and appearance
- Function - accuracy of chewing and biting
- Tissue alignment- The contour of the prosthesis should allow the surrounding tissues to adapt to a natural, healthy environment.
Missing Teeth:
- Helps to restore and maintain natural bites.
- Prevents unnatural stress on some teeth.
- Helps keep opposing teeth in their proper position.
- Prevents the movement and tilting of nearby teeth.
- Helps prevent tooth decay and periodontal disease (gum).
- Increase your smile, speech and chewing activity.
