When a tooth has become injured, decayed, weakened, incomplete, or even completely missing, it’s important to restore the missing structure as soon as possible for the sake of the patient’s oral function and self-confidence. Our practice offers custom-made dental crowns and bridges as durable methods for recreating teeth that can be wholeheartedly relied on. Better yet, we use materials of the highest quality (including tooth-colored dental porcelain) to ensure results that exceed expectations.

Crowns and bridges are a fixed solution to missing or damaged teeth. A crown is used when the tooth structure is damaged or fractured. A bridge is used when one or more teeth are missing.

They are required in the following areas: 

  • Replace a large filling when there isn't enough tooth remaining.
  • Protection of any weak tooth from fracturing.
  • Top Restore a fractured tooth.
  • To Cover a dental implant.
  • To camouflage a discolored or poorly shaped tooth.
  • To give strength to a root canal treated tooth.
  • Bridges are commonly used if you’re missing one or more teeth. They cover the space where the teeth are missing and are cemented to natural teeth or implants surrounding the space.

Porcelain Crowns

general-dentistryA broken or cracked tooth can be more than just an eyesore. It can cause sudden pain (especially when eating) or result in constant discomfort. A damaged tooth can also have more significant implications for the way the upper and lower teeth fit together when the patient bites down. Dental crowns are typically utilized at our Dental Works practice in these cases. Dr. Simran Kaur places crowns over the damaged teeth to protect and support them, as well as restore the appearance of the smile. If you are experiencing pain from a broken or cracked tooth, contact the team at Dental Works today to schedule an appointment to discuss the placement of a porcelain crown.

 

About Porcelain Crowns

A porcelain crown is a tooth-shaped covering that is placed over the surface of a damaged tooth to provide normal appearance and function. Crowns are made from tooth-colored material that is shaped to resemble natural teeth, making crowns virtually undetectable from surrounding teeth. Crowns are commonly used to support single teeth but may also be used to hold a dental bridge in place. Crowns frequently top dental implant posts as well; when a tooth has fallen out or been extracted, a dental implant provides an excellent, stable base for the crown.

The Placement of Porcelain Crowns

Metal crowns gold crowns The placement of porcelain crowns usually requires two office visits to Dental Works. During the first visit, we remove the decayed area of the tooth and some additional structure to make room for the crown. She then captures impressions that are used to guide the fabrication of the crown at a dental laboratory. The crowns will be custom-crafted to fit the patient’s teeth and blend in flawlessly with the surrounding teeth’s color, shape, and size. While the custom restoration is being created, Dr. Simran may place a temporary crown so the patient can eat and speak normally.
Once the custom crown is ready, the patient returns to our office to have it placed. This is usually about two to three days after the initial visit. The temporary crown is removed, and the custom crown is slipped over the tooth and bonded into place with a dental adhesive. The crown is buffed and polished to mimic the appearance of the surrounding, natural teeth, and Dr. Simran checks to make sure the bite lines up correctly.

Benefits of Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns offer several benefits. They are crafted from only the finest materials, making them extremely durable and long-lasting (with the proper care). The porcelain material closely resembles natural tooth enamel, so the crowns will blend in seamlessly with the surrounding teeth. They also restore the patient’s ability to chew normally, although for optimal results, it’s best to avoid extremely sticky or tough foods.
Crowns can save a tooth that otherwise may need to be extracted and replaced with a dental implant. Placing a crown is a much less invasive procedure than placing dental implant posts. Also, placing crowns can improve a bite that is thrown off by a missing or misshaped tooth.

We deal in customized solution to our patients when it comes to crowns and bridges. We take pride in the fact that we ensure that all are prosthetic work is done via CAD – CAM machines with a 3D simulation to give you that exact matching shape and colour. Following are some of the materials that we give our patients when it comes to crown and bridges.

Zirconia / Porcelain-  Zirconium is a relatively new material that has the strength of metal and aesthetic properties of porcelain crowns. Zirconia, (zirconium dioxide) is a white, powdered metal oxide. It  is made from zirconium, a metal with similar properties to titanium. Zirconium makes a good choice for dental material because it is chemically nonreactive. The main advantages of zirconia crowns are they provide great aesthetics, they are strong and long lasting and are less likely to wear off due to their strength. Disadvantages includes difficulty in adjusting and possible wearing down of teeth they bite against. 

E-MAX crowns E-MAX crowns – The latest type of crown in dentistry today is as E –Max or Lithium Disilicate Crowns. It is made of lithium disilicate and is a type of all ceramic crown. They provide fantastic aesthetics and durability and are a great choice for front and back teeth. They bring out the unmatched quality of aesthetics in any of the available dental materials. They are a preferred choice for veneers and front teeth caps.

Porcelain fused to metal (PFM) - Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns have been considered the benchmark for the repair of damaged teeth since a long time. They provide great aesthetics and durability and are less costly than porcelain crowns. However, there are certain disadvantages like the crown may cause grey line at the gumline which makes it less aesthetic than all porcelain crowns. For patients with bruxism and clenching habits, this type of crown tends to wear down more easily against the opposite teeth.

VITA ENAMIC – the most versatile and the latest of all crowns is the newest material in dentistry is VITA ENAMIC. Having the same wear strength as of natural tooth, nothing comes close to it in terms of aestheticsand life like appearance. An ideal choice for patients with clenching and bruxing habits – these crowns will not harm the opposing teeth and will wear exactly at the same rate giving more life to your existing dentition. These are the costliest of the crowns. 

We take pride in the fact that we are the one of the handful of clinics in INDIA that can provide you with these caps.
