Combining Compassion and Experience
Missing or damaged teeth not only disrupt oral functionality but are also damaging to self-esteem. Missing teeth hinder routine activities such as biting or chewing. The loss of two or more teeth can even alter speech.
At AZ Cosmetic and Family Dentistry, we provide you with convenient solutions to missing and broken teeth. Our dental bridges and crowning services are cost-effective and efficient methods of restoring your radiant smile and oral functionality.
What to Expect
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are placed on top of the tooth to repair and support it. They help repair damaged teeth that otherwise may have to be removed.
There are several use cases of dental crowns. They are most commonly used to:
- Treat damage caused by injury or trauma
- Repair teeth exposed to deep cavities and extensive decay
- Restore worn out or broken teeth
- Offer additional protection after root canal therapy and prevent infection from spreading
- Fix up fractures and cracks caused by clenching or grinding
- Replace missing teeth
Today, dental crowns have been greatly improved with the help of advanced technology. AZ Cosmetic and Family Dentistry offers various dental crown options for maximum protection and support. We facilitate our patients with metal-free tooth-colored crowns that closely resemble the natural appearance of the tooth.
Our expert dentists at Glendale will discuss different crowning options available and recommend the best option after assessing the level of damage to your tooth/teeth.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges replace missing teeth with artificial teeth, covering the gaps exposed to plaque and diseases. Compared to dental dentures, dental bridges are permanent and remain in place for a long time. By practicing good oral hygiene, patients can use dental bridges for life.
Dental bridges are placed on the missing surface of the teeth and help keep the teeth in place with the help of dental implants or dental crowns. Dental bridges may also take support from adjoining teeth.
Our dentists in Glendale will discuss your options after determining the number of replacements required and your specific dental goals.
How to Care for Restorations?
To extend the life of dental restorations, it is important to practice good oral care. Apart from regular flossing and brushing, our dentists in Glendale recommend regular dental cleaning and examination to maintain your restorations.
To have the health of your crowned teeth examined, it is crucial to visit us for regular examinations. Our dentists will perform a thorough checkup to ensure everything is in good shape. We will take the necessary measures if replacement or repair is required.
Restorations are designed to last long but can be damaged if exposed to trauma or impact. Just as natural teeth are prone to breakage, restorations can also break. In case of trauma or breakage, get in touch with us immediately to schedule repair and treatment.
