What Are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown is a “cap” that covers a damaged tooth entirely. It restores the tooth to its original shape, size, and function while protecting it from further damage. Dr. Nord recommends crowns for teeth that are:
- Broken or fractured
- Severely decayed (too much for a filling)
- Weakened by a large filling
- Discolored or misshapen
- Recovering from a root canal
Bridging the Gap
If you are missing one or more teeth, a dental bridge may be the solution. A bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth anchored by crowns on the adjacent healthy teeth. This fixed restoration “bridges” the gap in your smile, preventing your other teeth from shifting out of place.
The Nord Dental Difference
Residents throughout Normal and the Twin Cities choose us for their restorative needs because we prioritize:
- Esthetics: We use tooth-colored materials that look incredibly natural.
- Comfort: We ensure a precise fit so your bite feels normal and comfortable.
- Durability: Our crowns and bridges are built to last, allowing you to eat your favorite foods without worry.
The Restoration Process
Getting a crown or bridge typically takes two visits:
- Preparation: Dr. Nord prepares the tooth, removing any decay and shaping it for the crown. We take a digital impression (no goop!) and place a temporary restoration.
- Placement: A few weeks later, you return to have your custom-made permanent crown or bridge bonded into place. We check the fit and make any necessary adjustments.
Protecting Your Investment
With proper care, your crown or bridge can last for many years. We recommend avoiding chewing on ice or hard candy and keeping up with regular exams and cleanings. Our team will give you all the tips you need to maintain your restored smile.
