Our Treatments
What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-made caps that fit over damaged or weakened teeth, restoring their shape, function, strength, and appearance while preventing further damage.
Dr. Dao may recommend a dental crown for the following reasons:
- To repair a cracked or fractured tooth
- To restore a tooth with a large cavity that cannot be repaired with a filling alone
- To cover and protect a tooth after undergoing a root canal treatment
- To restore the natural appearance, strength, and integrity of a worn-down tooth
- To complete a dental implant procedure or support a dental bridge
- To transform the appearance of a discolored, misshapen, slightly misaligned, or otherwise flawed tooth
At AD Smile Studio, we custom-craft crowns using high-quality materials, such as zirconia and e.max, known for their durability and lifelike appearance. Our restorations are strong enough to handle daily chewing while blending beautifully with your natural teeth.
What Are Dental Bridges?
A dental bridge can replace one or more neighboring teeth, literally “bridging” gaps in your smile. It consists of crowns placed on natural teeth on either side of the gap that support one or more aesthetic replacement teeth. Dental bridges are helpful for patients wanting a fixed tooth replacement or those who are not candidates for dental implants due to bone loss or other factors, such as active gum disease, medical conditions that affect healing, or heavy smoking.
What Is the Process for Dental Crowns and Bridges?
We will start by preparing one or more of your teeth to accommodate your new crown or bridge. Next, we will take digital impressions of your teeth that lab technicians use to create your restoration using high-quality materials, ensuring exceptional strength, precision, and aesthetics. Meanwhile, Dr. Dao and his team will create temporary restorations using modern 3D printing technology, protecting your prepared tooth or teeth as you wait for your final restoration.
After your restoration is ready, Dr. Dao will ensure it provides an ideal fit and color match before cementing it in place. The last step is making any needed adjustments for a comfortable bite and natural function. You’ll leave our practice with a beautiful, seamless smile.
Why Restore Your Smile with a Dental Crown or Bridge?
Dental crowns and bridges offer many important benefits for your oral health and confidence, including the following:
- Your restoration will allow you to eat more of the foods you love.
- A crown seals and protects a damaged tooth from further wear, fracture, or decay.
- A bridge can replace one or several missing teeth, filling gaps in your smile.
- Your restoration will prevent the neighboring teeth from shifting, preserving the alignment of your teeth and bite.
- Our aesthetic crowns and bridges are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, delivering beautifully natural smiles.
- Most patients feel more confident in social and professional settings after restoring their smile.
- Addressing damage and tooth loss early reduces the risk of more serious, costly dental problems down the road.
