When teeth become worn-down, damaged, or develop decay or infection, then you need treatment. To repair them, we could craft and secure a lifelike dental crown. In today’s blog, your team at Riverside Dental Group talks about repairing smiles with partial and full crowns.
The Need to Repair Your Teeth
If you sustain an injury that chips or cracks a tooth, repair is needed to avoid toothaches and cavities, possibly even infection! When a tooth hurts, there could already be cavities or infection present, and you need repair to stop the progress of the decay and preserve the tooth. We could also offer restorations to boost bite balance and chewing function, and to even aid in the support of replacement teeth, such as bridges or implant restorations. With custom full and partial crowns, we can repair your smile.
Partial Crowns
As the name implies, a partial is a more minor restoration, one that can address cases of injury or tooth decay too severe for a filling, but that do not yet require a complete restoration. The process preserves more of your natural tooth structure. We will numb your tooth and gently remove structure to accommodate your restoration. We then take digital images and measurements so we can design and craft them with precision. Made from ceramic, these will be very strong and shaded to blend with the tooth too. The inlay will fit in between the cusps on top of the tooth, while the onlay will fit over the cusps.
Full Crowns
If you have an issue too severe to be treated with a partial, then we could offer a complete one! This will fit over the entire tooth structure, everything above the gum line. We will numb your smile and remove more structure to accommodate the restoration, and complete the same steps as we discussed above to design and craft the final product. We then attach it to the tooth with a powerful bonding agent, so you have a new and lifelike restoration that can protect your smile for years to come! If you have any questions about our full and partial crowns, then contact our team today to learn more and treat your journey to a better smile!
