You may have heard of dental crowns<\/a>\nbefore \u2013 the tooth-shaped caps that slip over teeth to protect and restore\nthem. Maybe you\u2019re interested in getting one. After all, they can be used to\nfix a wide variety of issues with your teeth. However, they\u2019re not a\none-size-fits-all solution. For example, if you\u2019re missing teeth, maybe you\nneed a dental\nimplant<\/a> instead. Let\u2019s look at when you do and don\u2019t need a dental crown in\nCoppell. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What Are Dental Crowns and What Are They Used For?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A dental crown, also sometimes known as a cap, is a\nrestoration that fits snugly over a tooth. Usually it\u2019s made of tooth-colored\nmaterials like porcelain or ceramic, which can be customized to fit the color\nof the rest of your smile so that they blend in seamlessly. Crowns are\ntypically used to cover a tooth that has been damaged due to injury or decay. Sometimes\nit may also simply be slipped over a tooth to improve its appearance. For\nexample, a tooth may look stubby or stained. A dental crown can make it look\nbeautiful again in no time. Although crowns are great for correcting several\nissues at once, they are not always the ideal treatment for everyone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Situations Might Warrant Other Procedures?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re missing a tooth, a crown may not be all that\u2019s\nneeded to fix the issue. You might need a dental implant in Coppell. A dental\nimplant is a screw-shaped titanium post that is surgically inserted beneath the\ngumline to replace the structure of a lost tooth root. Then, over a period of a\nfew months, the jawbone actually grows around the implant until it essentially\nbecomes a part of your own anatomy. After that process is complete, your\ndentist may then top the implant with a dental crown to make it look and feel\njust like your natural tooth did. Sometimes, though, he or she may opt for a\nbridge instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A dental bridge acts as a prosthetic to restore an entire\nrow of missing teeth. Several crowns are attached together and anchored onto\nyour remaining teeth. This gives your smile the appearance of being full and\nnatural. In addition, they are fully functional in helping you bite and chew\nwith no problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re considering getting a dental crown, ask your\ndentist if it truly is the best solution for you. You might find yourself\nneeding a bridge or dental implant instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
