Crowns and Bridges in Eastpointe, Michigan
Do You Need a Crown or Bridge?
If you have missing or damaged teeth, a crown or bridge
may be right for you. Crowns and bridges restore the natural function and appearance of your mouth. They are tailored prosthetic inserts that are custom made for your oral cavity. Whereas dentures and other devices can be removed, crowns and bridges are permanent fixtures that are cemented into place.
What Is the Difference?
Dental Bridges
Bridges are natural-looking dental appliances that can replace a section of missing teeth. Because they are custom made, bridges are barely noticeable and can restore the natural contour of teeth as well as the proper bite relationship between upper and lower teeth.
Dental Crowns
Crowns are synthetic caps, usually made of a material like porcelain, placed on the top of a tooth. They are typically used to restore a tooth's function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root canal. When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth.
Making Daily Tasks Easier
The purpose of crowns and bridges is to make your life easier. They can strengthen decaying teeth and restore your ability to bite and chew without pain. Crowns and bridges can also protect deteriorating teeth from further harm as well as repair an already-damaged tooth.
Moreover, they can augment your appearance by covering discolored or misshapen teeth. No matter your specific circumstances, crowns and bridges help you look your best while making everyday tasks more comfortable. These can include eating, speaking and even breathing.
