Why Do I Need a Dental Crown?

As a South Calgary Dentist, we offer a large array of general dental services including dental crown procedures.

A crown (also known as a cap) is a prosthesis placed over a tooth that restores its shape and appearance. Dental Crowns may be required when a tooth requires a filling that will exceed the natural tooth structure. Your teeth may also have extensive damage, including decay or fracture lines that require the placement of a crown.

Additionally, your teeth may have become discolored, or your teeth may have become brittle after a root canal therapy treatment. Since these teeth may be more susceptible to fracture, a dental crown may be an ideal option.

The Dental Crown Procedure

When we fit you for your new dental crown, it is typically a two-step procedure. Your first visit will be to prepare and shape your tooth to allow room for the crown. The 2^nd visit will be after your new crown has been fabricated and is ready to install.

What is a Dental Bridge?

Dental Bridges are also placed over an existing tooth or dental implant. Quite simply they consist of one or more replacement teeth that are then attached to the natural teeth next to them. A Dental Bridge can replace single or multiple missing teeth and make chewing easier, improve your appearance, as well as allow you to keep your teeth, gums and jaw health.

The Dental Bridge Procedure

It typically takes two or more visits to prepare and fit your dental bridge. Your first visit will be to assess and prepare the surrounding and opposing teeth, as well as take any impressions required to create your new bridge. While your new bridge is being fabricated, you will typically have a temporary bridge placed to protect the prepared teeth.

At your next visit, the temporary bridge will be removed, and Dr. Tran will place your new fixed bridge onto your prepared teeth. After adjusting the bridge and checking your bite, it will then be cemented into place. If you bridge requires further adjustments, follow up visits may be required.

Getting A Dental Crown Calgary

Dental crowns, which are also known as caps, are placed over decayed or damaged teeth to restore the correct shape and appearance of the tooth. You can choose from a variety of different types of crown at our dental clinic in SW Calgary. Porcelain and Ceramic dental crowns are the most popular, as they give you the most natural-looking results and once in place are virtually undetectable. But you can also choose Gold or Alloy dental crowns. If you need help and advice choosing the best option for you, our team at our dental clinic Calgary will be happy to help.

Dental crowns are often necessary when a tooth requires a filling that will exceed the natural shape of the tooth. Fractured or decayed teeth can also benefit from dental crowns, so too discoloured or brittle teeth caused by root canal therapy.

Fitting a dental crown at ADx Dental Calgary is a two-step process, requiring two visits to the clinic:

1^ST VISIT: We will prepare and shape the tooth to allow room for the crown to be fitted.

2^nd VISIT: Your new crown will have been made and will be fitted in place by Dr Tran.

Getting A Dental Bridge In Calgary SW Dental Clinic

Dental bridges are replacement teeth (or a single tooth) which is placed over existing teeth or dental implants and attached to the natural teeth next to them. Dental bridges fill in gaps left by missing teeth so you can chew food more easily and make your mouth look better. They also help keep your teeth, gums and jaw in good health.

Fitting a dental crown is typically a two visit process, although sometimes further visits are needed.

1^st VISIT: Dr Tran will assess the work required and the surrounding and opposing teeth. Impressions will be taken to ensure the bridge that’s created for you fits your mouth. A temporary bridge may be used to protect your teeth while you wait for your actual bridge to be made.

2^ND VISIT: Dr Tran will remove your temporary bridge and fix the new bridge in place. After ensuring it’s correctly installed and that you can bite comfortably, your bridge will be cemented in place

OTHER VISITS: If further adjustments to your bridge are required, these will be carried out during subsequent visits to ADx Dental.

I am so glad this office opened up close to my house!

Very pleasant staff who are extremely professional and helpful. Dr. Tran sat down with me for 1 hour to talk about my dental needs and concerns. You can tell he loves what he does and enjoys getting to know you as an individual rather then just a patient.

Outstanding!

I'm terrified of the dentist...seriously. But they are so gentle and really pay attention to your comfort level. I'd recommend them to anyone and Dr. Tran is now my dentist for life! A lot of thought was put into how to make the experience the best for both the staff and the patients.
