When you have an issue with the appearance of your tooth, or if one develops painful decay or injury, then we can help with a restoration. We have both full and partial crowns, each custom-made from lifelike and durable materials. In today’s blog, your Leawood, KS, dentist talks about restoring smiles with dental crowns.
When Your Smile Requires Restoration
When should you see our team for treatment? We may recommend a dental crown for patients with a cracked, chipped, or broken tooth. If teeth grinding has worn down structure, we can help with a restoration. Placement could also help reshape misshapen teeth, address gaps between teeth, and even improve overall bite balance and chewing function too. Should you have a cavity too severe for a filling, we can help! If you have missing teeth, then we could employ them to help secure a bridge in place or to restore a single tooth dental implant. To ensure a comfortable fit, balance, and a lifelike appearance, we can custom-make them from lifelike materials.
Creating a Custom Option
When we examine a tooth and decide that a restoration is the best bet, we will numb it so we can comfortably remove outer structure and make room for the completed crown. A full covers the entirety of the outer structure, and can handle multiple issues. Our team will take detailed digital images of the tooth, and use this in a dental lab to aid in the design and fabrication of the new restoration. When this is ready, we will check the fit, make final adjustments, and attach them with the same powerful bonding agent we use to support bridges and more.
Help With Partial Options
What if you have an issue too severe for a filling, but not advanced enough to require a complete dental crown? In these situations, we can help with a partial. We have two options, an inlay and an only. The inlay fits in between the cusps on top of the tooth, while the onlay fits cover the cusp. Both are custom-made from materials like porcelain, which we craft your crowns with, and both can be shaded to blend with your smile. We can help return your smile to optimal health, function, and beauty again with our fulls or partials.
If you have any questions about crowns, inlays, or onlays, or if you have aching or damaged teeth, then contact our team today to learn more.
