Regain Your Smile with Dental Restorations
When it comes to addressing lost or severely damaged teeth, dental crowns and bridges serve as highly effective restorative dentistry solutions. Our crowns and bridges not only look like natural teeth, but also offer support for chewing and speaking. We prioritize using high-quality materials in the construction of our crowns and bridges, guaranteeing their longevity and performance.
The team at Long Beach Dental Health takes great care to ensure that your dental crowns and bridges blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Typically, you can anticipate a minimum of two visits when receiving dental crowns or bridges. During your initial visit, we'll take impressions of your teeth, which will be sent to a dental laboratory for fabrication. Once your custom crown or bridge is crafted, you'll return for a second appointment to ensure its fit and functionality.
Same-Day Crowns for A Faster Alternative
For patients who prefer a quicker solution, we also offer same-day crowns using the Glidewell Fastmill system. Instead of waiting for a lab-fabricated crown over two visits, we can digitally scan your tooth, design your custom crown in-office, and mill it on the same day, all without messy impressions or a temporary crown in between.
This advanced technology allows us to deliver a precise, durable, and natural-looking crown in a single appointment, giving you a convenient option that fits your schedule without compromising on quality or fit.
FAQs
Dental crowns in Long Beach, CA are used when a tooth has a very large filling that exceeds the natural tooth structure, your tooth had root canal therapy or for cosmetic reasons.
Dental crowns have many applications. The first is to be installed over a damaged tooth to cap the existing structure, which restores the damaged tooth so it can be used normally. Crowns can also be attached to dental implants to replace missing teeth; these implants will be surgically inserted into the jawbone and serve as the root for the tooth. This procedure keeps the crown steady and secure.
Additionally, dental crowns may also be used to provide extra support for dental bridges. They do not require any special treatment and can be brushed and flossed as normal.
