Custom, Lifelike Crowns and Bridges in Southlake
A dental crown is a lifelike replica of your tooth’s visible portion, also called the crown. It’s designed to completely restore and fortify a tooth by capping its entire crown. If a tooth is lost, then one or more crowns can be designed to support a custom dental bridge that replaces the tooth and fills the gap in your smile.
When a Dental Crown Is Appropriate
Dental crowns in Southlake offer comprehensive restoration for teeth that have become structurally compromised, either through extensive damage, severe tooth infection, or more. A crown’s ability to completely restore a tooth makes it an ideal solution for a wide range of cosmetic and restorative issues, including:
Fractured or broken teeth
Teeth that are severely worn down
Teeth that have received root canal treatment
Teeth with severe cosmetic blemishes
Teeth that seem too small
And more
When a Dental Bridge Is Necessary
Sometimes, a tooth can’t be restored and needs to be extracted, or is lost before you’re able to effectively restore it. Once a tooth is lost or extracted, its absence will impact your long-term oral health, your bite’s balance, and the integrity of your remaining teeth. Therefore, recognizing the signs that indicate the need for a dental bridge in Southlake is pivotal for maintaining optimal oral health and a confident smile. To avoid the negative consequences of tooth loss, our dental specialists can suggest replacing it with a custom-made dental bridge, which consists of a lifelike tooth replacement (a pontic) and one or two supportive dental crowns. The crowns can be bonded, or affixed, to the healthy teeth, known as abutment teeth, on either side, to close the gap in your smile.
