Plumas Family Dentistry: Dental crowns, bridges, and dentures

Dental crowns, bridges, and dentures are all used restore your smile. Crowns are used then your natural tooth is still in place to protect and cover a tooth that is damaged or irregular. They are used to restore and protect your teeth by covering imperfections and damaged teeth as well as preventing oral health issues from progressing. This allows patients to maintain a natural smile. Dental bridges and dentures come in when a tooth is missing and needs to be less noticable.

Crowns and Bridges

Dental Bridge Restorations

A dental bridge is different from a crown in that its purpose is not to cover a damaged tooth, but to bridge the gap of a missing tooth. It bridges together two crowns to replace missing teeth while also covering multiple teeth that have damage.

Depending on your unique situation, dental crowns or dental implants are placed on each side of the missing tooth with a replacement porcelain bridge to imitate an existing tooth. The dental bridge is so secure that these porcelain teeth will not be able to shift or slide and can be fully used as natural teeth.

These bridges look and feel natural because they are made out of porcelain which reflects light the same as a real tooth. They are strong enough to act as real teeth, and unlike dentures, they can be cleaned without having to remove them. While bridges are often a cost-effective choice, many patients prefer the lifelong benefits of dental implants in Yuba City for a more durable and natural-feeling solution.
