2. Is the procedure for crowns and bridges painful?
Most patients report little to no discomfort during treatment. Local anesthesia is used to ensure comfort throughout the process.
3. How do I take care of my crown or bridge?
Brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and regular dental checkups are key. Avoid chewing hard objects like ice or pens to prevent damage.
4. Can crowns and bridges look natural?
Yes. Crowns and bridges are custom-made to match the color, size, and shape of your surrounding teeth for a seamless appearance.
5. What is the difference between a crown and a bridge?
A crown covers and strengthens a single damaged tooth, while a bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to adjacent natural teeth or implants.
