What You Need To Know About Crowns and Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges from your dentist in Wynnewood, PA, can rebuild your smile.

It’s not fun to live with the pain of tooth decay, broken teeth, or missing teeth. It’s also difficult to avoid eating the foods you love because you can’t chew well. Dental crowns and bridges can change that.

Dr. Domenic Baglivo in Wynnewood, PA, offers a wide range of dental services, including dental crowns and bridges to rebuild your smile.

Dental crowns can help your smile in many ways. They protect your teeth from damage. A dental crown encases the entire visible surface of your tooth in a protective shell. They provide superb protection because they spread the biting and chewing forces evenly across your teeth, which protects your teeth from breaking.

They enhance the beauty of your smile. Dental crowns provide extraordinary beauty because many crowns are made of high-grade dental ceramic or porcelain. That’s important because the material is light-reflective, and it looks just like natural tooth enamel.

Full porcelain or porcelain-fused-to-metal, also known as a PFM crown, are two of the most common choices. Full porcelain is excellent for teeth that are visible when you smile because of its natural-looking quality. PFM crowns are perfect for back teeth because the metal foundation provides additional strength.

Bridges replace teeth that you have lost. Dental bridges are cemented in place, so you never have to worry about them moving around. They are composed of prosthetic teeth, known as pontics, and abutment teeth, which are crowns placed over the teeth adjacent to the empty space.

When you choose dental bridges as tooth replacement, you will enjoy:

  • Permanent tooth replacement, because you never have to take them out
  • Natural-looking tooth replacement, because they are made of natural-looking materials
  • User-friendly tooth replacement, because you can brush and floss them like you normally would

When you need to rebuild your smile, choose dental crowns and bridges to give you the strength you need, and the great looks you want. To find out more about how dental crowns and bridges can rebuild your smile, talk with Dr. Baglivo in Wynnewood, PA, at (610) 642-0259 today!
