Crowns and Bridges in Winnipeg
About Dental Crowns & Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges offer some great benefits for individuals facing dental issues. Dental crowns, often made of porcelain, serve as a durable solution for tooth decay, cracks, and discolorations by providing a robust cover for the damaged tooth. They not only restore the appearance, function, and shape of the tooth but also protect it from further damage, thereby supporting the healing process after procedures such as root canals or dental implants.
On the other hand, dental bridges effectively fill gaps caused by missing teeth. They are composed of strong materials that blend seamlessly with natural teeth, helping to restore an individual's smile, speech, and chewing ability. Furthermore, dental bridges help maintain the structure of the face and prevent the remaining teeth from shifting position. Both crowns and bridges thereby contribute significantly to enhancing oral health and improving overall confidence.
There are several reasons why a patient might need a dental crown or bridge.
Tooth Decay: Dental crowns are often used to restore the strength and structure of a tooth that has been significantly damaged by decay.
Chipped or Cracked Teeth: If a tooth is chipped or cracked, a crown can protect it from further damage. This also applies to teeth that have been weakened by excessively large fillings.
Following a Root Canal: After a root canal, a tooth tends to become brittle and more prone to fracture. A crown can provide the necessary protection and strength to the tooth.
Cosmetic Reasons: Crowns can cover discolored or misshapen teeth, improving the overall appearance of your smile.
Missing Teeth: Dental bridges are primarily used to replace one or more missing teeth. They span the space where the teeth are missing.
Maintaining Facial Structure: Missing teeth can lead to a sagging facial appearance. Bridges help maintain the shape of your face, providing support to the facial structures.
Preventing Teeth Shifting: When a tooth is lost, the remaining teeth may shift out of place and lead to a bad bite. A dental bridge keeps the remaining teeth in their correct position.
Restoring Chewing and Speaking Ability: Missing teeth can impair your ability to chew and speak properly. Dental bridges can help restore these functions.
