How Crowns and Bridges Can Help Your Smile

Your family dentist in Grand Forks, ND, can restore your smile beautifully with crowns and bridges.

If you haven’t checked out today’s crowns and bridges, you owe it to yourself and your smile to see what’s new in the world of restorative dentistry. The truth is, modern crown and bridge materials provide the superb strength you need, and the outstanding beauty and natural look you want.

Dr. Steven Erlandsson in Grand Forks, ND, offers comprehensive family dental care services, including crowns and bridges to restore your smile.

There are many ways dental crowns can help your smile. Consider that a dental crown will:

  • Protect the entire visible surface of your tooth above the gum line which can prevent even the most damaged teeth from breaking.
  • Provide a naturally beautiful look because many crowns are made of porcelain, a light-reflective material that looks just like a natural tooth structure.

There are many dental problems a crown can fix. You might need a dental crown if you have:

  • A tooth that is badly broken from an accident or injury
  • A tooth that has been weakened from previous restorative treatment
  • A tooth that has been weakened from root canal therapy
  • A tooth that is worn down from bad habits or aging

Dental bridges can help your smile in many ways too. Consider that a dental bridge will:

  • Increase the surface area available for chewing, making your chewing function better. When you chew better, it helps your digestion and your overall health.
  • Fill in the areas where you have lost teeth. A full, beautiful smile can give a boost to your self-confidence.
  • Dental crowns and bridges can give you back your beautiful smile. They can also increase the strength of your smile, so you can go back to enjoying the foods you love again.
