While your teeth are marvels of natural engineering capable of withstanding enormous pressure, they are not indestructible. That’s where dental restorations in Hyderabad come in. Crowns, also called caps, are used to repair everything from chipped teeth to cracked enamel. They can restore damaged or decayed teeth to a healthy, functional state and improve the esthetics of a compromised tooth. Sometimes, when a single small tooth is lost at the front of the mouth, a simple bridge with ‘wings’ glued to the back of the adjacent teeth can be made, resulting in less damage to the surrounding teeth.
At Dr. Gowd’s in Hyderabad, we specialize in providing high-quality dental restorations, including Zirconia crowns and bridges. Zirconia crowns and bridges are increasingly popular for their durability and ability to retain a natural look due to their translucent nature. These dental restorations can be modifiable and reshaped to enhance the appearance of your teeth, often looking better than the original. Zirconium bridges and crowns are biocompatible and comfortably bond with the gums, making them tough and able to withstand the wear and tear of daily use.
When a tooth is heavily decayed it is more likely to fracture and lose considerable tooth substance. The greater risk is that a fracture line may go below the margin of the gum which makes restoration more difficult or near impossible. Crowns may be made from several different materials, gold and porcelain being the most common types.
A bridge allows the dentist to replace lost teeth without the use of a denture or dental implant. Basically a false tooth is held in place by being attached to a tooth next door. The disadvantage is that the teeth next to the space have to be prepared in a similar way to a crown in order to accept the bridge. If these teeth already have crowns or big restorations then this is not a problem, the major concern however is when these teeth have small or no restorations (fillings). One compromise is the ‘acid etched bridge’, with this type a fine ledge is placed on the back of the adjacent teeth.
One disadvantage of a bridge is that the patient should wait three months before placement as the ‘gum’ shrinks’ after a tooth is extracted. If the bridge was fitted early a gap would appear underneath the pontic (the false tooth). At the back of the mouth this may not be a problem, at the front of the mouth however this may appear as a black line along the gum.
Zirconia bridge is high quality, stronger, durable, natural looking and visually appealing as compared to other types of bridges. It is often preferred to metal ceramic bridges in that it causes less tooth sensitivity. Since Zirconia is made from zirconium oxide there is no base metal, and the black lines at the edge of the gum line are eliminated.
