Dental Crowns

The Basics of Dental Crowns

A dental crown is a protective cap placed over a damaged or weakened tooth. Think of it as armor for your tooth, strengthening it while restoring its natural appearance.

When Do You Need a Crown?

• Severe tooth decay
• Cracked or broken teeth
• Following a root canal
• Covering a dental implant
• Improving a tooth’s shape or color

Understanding Dental Bridges

How Bridges Fill the Gaps

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth between healthy teeth. It restores your bite, keeps surrounding teeth from shifting, and enhances your smile.

Types of Dental Bridges

• Traditional Bridge – Uses crowns on adjacent teeth for support
• Cantilever Bridge – Anchored on one side (for areas with only one adjacent tooth)
• Maryland Bridge – Uses metal or porcelain wings to attach to neighboring teeth

Benefits of Dental Crowns and Bridges in Houston, TX

• Restores chewing function
• Prevents teeth from shifting
• Improves speech and pronunciation
• Enhances smile aesthetics
• Long-lasting with proper care

The Process: What to Expect

Step 1: Consultation & Examination

A thorough dental exam determines whether a crown or bridge is right for you. Schedule a consultation today.

How Long Do Crowns and Bridges Last?
