Crowns and dental bridges are two common dental procedures that are used to restore and improve the appearance and function of damaged or missing teeth. At Scottsburg Family Dentistry, we specialize in providing high-quality crowns and dental bridges to our patients, helping them achieve optimal oral health and a confident smile.

Traditional Crowns

Crowns, often termed as “caps”, are custom-made shields that envelop the visible part of the tooth, offering an undetectable, natural finish. While crowns can be crafted from various materials, our traditional crowns prioritize materials such as porcelain, ceramic, and zirconia. Each crown is artfully designed to seamlessly blend with your natural teeth.

One of the main benefits of a dental crown is that it can help to strengthen a damaged or weakened tooth, preventing further damage and preserving the health of the surrounding teeth. Crowns can also be used to restore the appearance of a misshapen, discolored, or otherwise unsightly tooth, improving the overall appearance of your smile.

Dental Bridges

Dental bridges, on the other hand, are used to replace one or more missing teeth. A dental bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth, known as pontics, that are attached to crowns on either side. The crowns are then placed over the natural teeth next to the gap created by the missing tooth or teeth, effectively “bridging” the gap and restoring the appearance and function of the smile.

Dental bridges can provide a number of benefits to patients with missing teeth. In addition to restoring the appearance of the smile, bridges can also improve the function of the bite, preventing the surrounding teeth from shifting into the gap created by the missing tooth or teeth. Bridges can also help preserve the jawbone’s and surrounding tissues’ health, preventing further dental problems and maintaining optimal oral health.

Conclusion

We use the latest technology and techniques to ensure that our patients receive the highest quality crowns and dental bridges. Our team of experienced dental professionals works closely with each patient to design custom-made restorations that meet their unique needs and goals.

We understand that the thought of having a dental procedure can be intimidating, which is why we go out of our way to make sure that our patients are comfortable and informed every step of the way. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will take the time to explain the procedure, answer any questions you may have, and help you understand what to expect during the process.

Our goal is to help our patients achieve and maintain optimal oral health, and we believe that high-quality crowns and dental bridges are an important part of this process. Whether you’re looking to restore the appearance and function of your smile, or simply maintain optimal oral health, Scottsburg Family Dentistry is here to help. So why wait? Schedule your appointment today and take the first step toward a healthier, more confident smile!

Dentist is professional and soft spoken, friendly as his staff. Had little Waite time. Like how it’s more laid back. Must be great to everyone cause it’s always full! Recommend them to everyone! I love how they tell me prices, last one wouldn’t, plus kept falling through the cracks. Plus I love the new office and all the space. I’ll never go anywhere where else. My daughter hates to go to a dentist and will to go to them!!!!!
