Porcelain Crowns & Bridges

What Are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a custom-made, tooth-shaped cap placed over a damaged or weakened tooth. It’s designed to restore the tooth’s size, shape, strength, and appearance. At Fremont Star Dental, we use high-quality materials such as porcelain to create crowns that closely match the color and texture of your natural teeth.

‍

Porcelain crowns in Fremont are ideal for:

• Restoring a fractured or worn-down tooth
• Covering a tooth after root canal therapy
• Capping a tooth with a large filling and insufficient structure
• Improving the appearance of a misshaped or discolored tooth
• Covering a dental implant
• Supporting a dental bridge

Porcelain is often the preferred material because it provides a natural, translucent appearance that mimics real enamel. In some cases, porcelain fused to metal may be used for added strength, especially on back teeth that require more force for chewing.

What Are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth. It spans the space left by missing teeth and anchors to the surrounding natural teeth or implants. These supporting teeth are known as abutments, and they are capped with crowns. The replacement tooth in the middle is known as the pontic. At Fremont Star Dental, we offer porcelain bridges in Fremont that are custom-designed to match your smile and restore balance, function, and aesthetics. A bridge not only fills the gap caused by tooth loss but also prevents surrounding teeth from shifting out of alignment, which can lead to bite problems, gum disease, and TMJ disorders.

The Process of Getting Crowns and Bridges

Getting a cosmetic crown or bridge in Fremont is a step-by-step process designed with your comfort and satisfaction in mind:

Step 1: Examination and Planning

Your dentist at Fremont Star Dental will assess your oral health, take digital X-rays, and determine the best restoration method based on your needs and preferences.

Step 2: Tooth Preparation

The affected tooth (or teeth) will be gently reshaped to make room for the crown or bridge. An impression is then taken to create an accurate model for the lab.

Step 3: Temporary Crown or Bridge

While your permanent restoration is being crafted, a temporary crown or bridge will be placed to protect your prepared teeth and maintain functionality.

Step 4: Final Placement

Once your custom crown or bridge is ready, it is permanently cemented into place. The dentist will check your bite and ensure the fit is perfect before finalizing the restoration.

Caring for Your Crowns and Bridges

To ensure your porcelain crowns and bridges last for many years, follow these care tips:

• Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste
• Floss daily, especially around the bridge area
• Avoid chewing on hard objects like ice, pens, or hard candy
• Wear a nightguard if you grind your teeth
• Visit Fremont Star Dental every six months for cleanings and checkups

Although crowns and bridges are durable, they can become loose or fall out if not maintained properly. Good oral hygiene is key to preserving the underlying teeth and gums that support your restoration.
