Dental Crowns and Bridges Near You
We provide dental crowns near you to cover damaged and weakened teeth and teeth that have undergone root canal therapy. Bridges cemented to natural teeth fill the gap left behind by missing teeth. Traditionally, the production of and placement of crowns and bridges has taken at least two appointments. At Seton Dental, we can provide you with bridges and crowns in just one appointment.
Looking for Dental Crowns and Bridges?
If you are missing teeth or have broken a tooth cap, we recommend receiving a consultation for dental crowns and bridges in Calgary, AB. Dental crowns replace large fillings where a lot of tooth structure has been lost or to protect a weak tooth from being fractured. Dental crowns are also useful and versatile restorations for a fractured tooth, covering a discoloured or misshapen tooth, covering a dental implant, attaching a bridge, or capping a tooth that has undergone root canal therapy.
Our office offers dental bridges near Cranston to replace missing teeth. Losing teeth can cause problems with your jaw and bite because the remaining teeth will naturally shift or turn to fill the empty space left behind. To prevent the serious ongoing implications of tooth loss, we recommend that patients be fit for a dental bridge in Calgary, AB. Each end of the bridge is bonded to a healthy tooth; it bridges the gap left by the missing natural teeth and supports replacement teeth that are called pontics.
The Procedure
Crowns and bridges have traditionally taken at least two appointments to plan, prepare for, build, and fit. For patients who may already have undergone extensive procedures, such as tooth extraction, that additional time is often inconvenient.
Our dental office provides single visit dental crowns and bridges in Calgary, AB. This is possible with the CEREC — CERamicREConstruction — process. This process enables us to provide patients with crowns and bridges created from durable ceramic materials in just one appointment. We prepare single visit bridges and crowns using digital 3D images and computer-aided design (CAD) to mill the restorations from ceramic material. That ceramic material blends naturally with your remaining healthy teeth. Its plaque resistance and non-abrasive qualities protect your mouth while contributing to healthy teeth and gums.
