Dental Crowns & Dental Bridges in Flanders

Dental Crowns & Dental Bridges Near You

When it comes to restoring your smile, at Rand Center for Dentistry, we have both the skill and expertise to deal with teeth that are broken, extensively restored, previously root canaled, or cracked. Dental crowns and bridges in Flanders are treatment options that have been in dentistry for years, and over time, the most popular and reliable options.

What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are covers or caps that we place over chipped, broken, or damaged teeth. They restore the ideal shape and size of your teeth, thereby improving their functionality. Crowns also strengthen your teeth.

Dental crowns in Flanders are a sought-after treatment option for cavities that are too large for fillings. In some cases, we also perform this procedure after a root canal treatment.

Dental crowns near you are crafted using a diverse range of materials, including metal alloys, ceramics, porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, and composite resin. At the Rand Center for Dentistry, we take color-matching these crowns seriously! Our goal is to blend the crown seamlessly with the natural appearance of your surrounding teeth.

‍What Are Dental Bridges? 

‍Dental bridges consist of one or more false teeth and two crowns that fit on either side of the gap left by your missing teeth. The false teeth are placed in between, thus restoring your smile. The artificial teeth are known as pontics and are made using various materials such as porcelain, alloys, gold, or even a combination of all of them.

As the name suggests, dental bridges in Flanders work by bridging or filling the gap created by missing teeth. They can be supported by natural teeth or dental implants.

‍Procedures of Dental Crowns & Dental Bridges

‍The process for getting dental crowns and bridges is straightforward and efficient. Here's what you can expect:

For Dental Crowns:

• We begin with a thorough examination of your teeth.
• X-rays are taken, along with digital impressions of your mouth.
• Using advanced digital technology, we create 3D models of your teeth.
• We then prepare your custom crown based on these models.
• In some cases, we can even place the crown on the same day.

For Dental Bridges:

• During your first appointment, we prepare the adjacent teeth that will support the bridge.
• We fit you with a temporary bridge to protect your teeth and gums.
• We take detailed impressions of your teeth and mouth.
• These impressions are used to manufacture your permanent, custom-made bridge.
• Once your permanent bridge is ready, you'll return to our office for a final fitting and secure placement.

Our use of modern dental technology ensures a precise fit and natural appearance for both crowns and bridges, helping to restore your smile efficiently and effectively.

What Are the Advantages of Crowns and Bridges?

• Both dental crowns and bridges aim to enhance the appearance of your smile and improve the functionality of your teeth.
• They also improve occlusion and ease pain if you are suffering from a TMJ disorder.
• Dental bridges prevent your adjacent teeth from shifting.
