When a person faces the issue of missing teeth, they have a lot of questions. Nobody wants to walk around with missing teeth, so how can they be replaced?
Our dentists at the best dental hospital in Gurgaon suggest that getting a fixed dental prosthesis is one of the best decisions you can make. They are permanently attached, ensuring that the patient will not remove them; they bond to natural teeth or artificial roots. The most commonly used dental prosthesis, as means of restoration in dentistry, are crowns and bridges. Let us further discuss them!
Dental Bridge: If you lack one or more teeth, dentists recommend a bridge. Gaps left by missing teeth inevitably lead to a rotation or move of the remaining teeth into the empty spaces, resulting in an extremely bad bite. This can cause improper occlusion (called bite in layman terms), which can ultimately lead to worn-out teeth and gum problems in severe temporomandibular joint disorder cases. The bridge serves as a reconstruction to fill the holes left by missing teeth. As discussed earlier, the bridge’s replacement teeth would be better suited to missing teeth in function and esthetics and avoid complications resulting from missing teeth. You can contact dentists at Concern 32 for the best dental implants in India.
Working: The natural teeth or implants covering the space are cemented with bridges. These teeth, called abutments, act as bridge anchors. On the crowns that cover the abutments, a replacement tooth is attached, called a pontic. As with crowns, for bridges, you have a variety of materials. Based on the missing tooth (or teeth) location, its purpose, aesthetic considerations, and cost, your dentist will help you determine which to use. The color of your natural teeth may be matched by porcelain or ceramic bridges.
CROWNS: In layman’s words, crowns are often referred to as “caps,” serving to cover or encircle entirely for the defense of either root canal treated teeth or essential teeth or dental implant. Significant amounts of teeth are now drilled away in root canal procedures or extensive dental reconstruction. Placing dental crowns on the remaining tooth structure would provide strength and prevent fracturing of the tooth. It also helps the tooth to return to normal aesthetics and function. At the best dental hospital in Gurgaon, you can get your crown treatment done at a very affordable price.
Working: A crown may be used to enhance its appearance, form, or orientation, in addition to reinforcing a damaged tooth. To have a tooth-like appearance and structure for operation, a crown may also be mounted on top of an implant. The color of your natural teeth may be matched by porcelain or ceramic crowns. Gold and metal alloys, acrylic, and ceramic are also other materials.
While crowns and bridges can last a very long lifetime, they come loose or fall out sometimes. To ensure your crown or bridge’s durability, the most important measure you may take is to practice proper dental hygiene. Keep your gums and teeth safe by brushing twice a day and flossing daily with fluoride toothpaste. For checkups and professional cleanings, see the dentist and hygienist regularly.
