WHAT ARE THE DENTAL CORONAL AND BRIDGE?
You must have heard about the dental crown. What is this dental solution? To whom and in what cases do we recommend it? How aesthetic and how durable is it? Find out about it in Dentys’ dental blog!
Imagine the crown as a tiny cap that is pulled onto your injured tooth. Crowns may be placed on an “original, natural” tooth of yours which is either damaged or has such deep caries that an aesthetic filling can no longer correct it. During treatment, the tooth to be crowned is prepared, ground and then used to take a precise impression of it. This is necessary because later we will need to fit/glue the crown to the stump. The impression is developed by a dental technician, so your tooth will be guaranteed a precise and comfortable coverage.
DENTYS GYŐR DENTISTRY PROVIDES CROWNS WITH WHICH TYPES OF MATERIAL?
- Porcelain-fused metal ceramic crown
- Porcelain-fused nickel-free ceramic crown
- Porcelain-fused gold crown
- Zirconia crown
- Max press ceramic crown
You can see that the crown is not just made of ceramic. The ceramic on its own would be too brittle, it would quickly break down, and become damaged, thus it needs to be combined with other materials. Our dentists help you choose the right type!
WHAT ARE ZIRCONIUM AND E.MAX CROWN?
Zirconium is a completely metal-free material, which can also be used by metal allergy sufferers. In addition to its anti-allergenic properties, it has a special advantage in that its colour and transparency are very similar to natural teeth, making it almost unnoticeable in the denture. Press ceramic E.max crowns have almost the same effect as natural teeth. They are strong and durable and do not allergize. Perfect choice for forming “single” crowns or smaller bridges.
WHAT ARE DENTAL BRIDGES?
Bridges are made when side by side one or more missing teeth occur. Bridges can also be made in metal and metal-free finish. The bridges are almost unnoticeable, the “crowns” with the bridges perfectly fit into the dental area, are comfortable and fully functional. It is important to note that a crown can only be made if the two sides of the bridge have intact teeth, as they will be fixed to these. Manufacturing these bridges requires great dental and dental skills, so we recommend that you entrust yourself to Dentys’s specialists. Why should you choose a reliable dentistry for your prosthetic bridge work?
- You may need have the “pillars” of the bridges polished, i.e. the intact teeth on the sides to which the bridge is attached. Interventions with healthy teeth, if possible, should be avoided, and this requires serious expertise and precision. Of course, this is sometimes inevitable.
- There is sometimes food residue under the bridges, so it is important to go to a dental practitioner who takes conscientious care of your health!
- The proper construction of the bridges is important because a carelessly developed replacement in the gums and intact teeth can cause damage.
