3What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are cosmetic dental treatments used
to strengthen a tooth and improve its shape and
appearance. Our dentist near you will use a
dental crown when a patients tooth has lost its
structure or has become fractured or broken due
to trauma, decay, or wear. A dental crown is
essentially a cap that is placed over a tooth to
strengthen and protect it. Dental crowns can
either be made out of porcelain or metal, but
porcelain crowns are preferred because they are
durable and look most like natural teeth.

4What is Involved in Fitting a Dental Crown?
Getting fitted for a dental crown usually
requires two visits to our dental clinic. Our
dentist in Malton will remove the decay, reshape
your tooth, and place a temporary crown over it
during the first visit. At the next appointment,
our dentist will replace the temporary crown
with a permanent, customized crown.

5What Are the Benefits of Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are a restorative treatment that
enhances your oral health by Restoring the
function of your decayed or damaged
tooth Improving your speaking and chewing
capabilities Providing a natural and
healthy-looking smile Preventing further damage
to already weakened teeth

6What Are Dental Bridges?
A dental bridge is an artificial tooth that is
used to replace one or several missing teeth.
True to its name, a dental bridge bridges the
gap created by missing teeth by replacing them
with false teeth. Dental bridges can be made from
porcelain, gold, alloys, or a combination of all
three. To place a bridge, the surrounding teeth
will have to be altered to allow the bridge to
fit over them and stay anchored in the
mouth. Compared to other replacement options, one
of the biggest benefits of dental bridges is
that they are fixed in your mouth and cannot be
removed.
However, it is important to maintain an excellent
oral hygiene routine to ensure that the
supporting teeth stay strong and healthy.

7What is Involved in Fitting a Dental Bridge?
Before you can get a dental bridge, our dentist
will examine your specific concerns and needs to
determine which dental bridge is best for you.
They will then reshape and prepare your teeth
and take impressions to create your custom
dental bridge. Finally, they will cement the
dental bridge to your mouth, transforming your
smile and boosting your confidence.
