The Importance of a Complete Smile
Damaged or missing teeth can significantly impact your daily life, affecting everything from your ability to enjoy your favorite foods to your confidence in social situations. Beyond the visible gaps, missing teeth can lead to further dental issues, including shifting teeth, bite problems, and even bone loss. That’s where dental crowns and bridges come into play, providing robust solutions that not only improve your smile’s appearance but also restore its functionality.
Dental Crowns: Your Smile’s Armor
Dental crowns, often referred to as caps, are custom-designed coverings placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are versatile, used in various situations such as protecting a weak tooth from breaking, restoring a broken tooth, covering and supporting a tooth with a large filling, or covering a dental implant. With materials ranging from porcelain and ceramics to zirconia, modern crowns offer durability and a lifelike appearance that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
