Crowns and Bridges?
A crown can be placed for broken or decayed or
filled tooth or Root canal treated teeth. The
crown shape and colour matches the other teeth to
give a natural look. The longevity of crown
depends on the firmness of the tooth beneath it.
During the permanent crown preparation a
temporary crown can be placed. Crown more than
one is called bridge which is cemented to
supporting tooth which should be healthy. They
are placed in the area of missing teeth to bring
back the good appearance and to perform the
function of the lost teeth. To prepare a bridge
dentist prepares the teeth on both sides of the
missing teeth.
At Confydentz, the specialists perform the
procedure with latest technology which makes less
discomfort to the patients.
