For teeth that may be
severely damaged, you may want to consider the
option of dental crowns. This is also an effective
treatment and is recommended when a tooth is
severely decayed and can no longer hold a filling.
Furthermore, they are also recommended when a tooth
is cracked or broken and may be in danger of
cracking to the root. A crown completely covers the
tooth. They look and function like natural teeth.
The type of crown used during this type of procedure
will be based on the recommendation of the dentist.
We may recommend a
bridge be utilized to replace one or more teeth.
These restorations are cemented onto the teeth and
are referred to as "fixed" dentistry as opposed to a
restoration of missing teeth with a removable
appliance or partial denture.
At
Progressive Dental Group,
we realize that your goals and needs are unique.
That's why we take pride in making careful
evaluations and specific recommendations for you.
