It is now possible with the advances in Dentistry to create natural looking teeth. What is a dental crown As we get older, many of us discover that our teeth that are no longer as structurally sound as they were in our youth. Your regular dentist will usually be able to recognize problem areas which may lead to tooth damage and a need for dental crowns. Grinding your teeth, an improper
bite, age, fillings and tooth decay are all contributing factors in the
erosion, cracking or breakage of your teeth. If the entire surface of
the tooth is damaged, but the root system has remained intact, your dentist
will usually suggest that a dental crown be put in place. Dental crowns are also capable of replacing missing teeth entirely. The dental crown is secured to the teeth on either side using a bridge section which connects the two dental crowns. Alternatively, single tooth dental implants can be placed. This eliminates the need for supporting the dental crowns so no bridge is required. So, our dentist may recommend the placement of a dental crown for a wide range of problems but, in general, the majority of these reasons usually fall within one of the following basic categories:
A dental implant is another option for replacing teeth. With a dental implant, the dentist uses artificial teeth that are attached directly to your jaw or under your gum tissue.

Gate alloy range, Cergogold can also be veneered with Duceragold porcelain.
Matching
the shades of all-ceramic and metal-ceramic restorations in the same
patient's mouth is no longer a problem.
Gold
Dental Crowns
Gold crowns are often the preferred choice when the patient is not overly concerned about their appearance. Gold is extremely pliable making gold crowns a better fit than any other type. The strength and durability of the gold offers a more solid crown that will not chip or crack, which is possible with other types of crown. Gold crowns are normally used in molars, where the forces from chewing and grinding are most prevalent.
Advantages of gold crowns :
It is easier to prepare a tooth for a gold crown as there is minimal tooth structure removal and more of the original tooth remains intact.
Gold is less likely to cause wear on opposing teeth.
Gold is more pliable and offers a better fit.
Of all the crowns gold offers the healthiest environment for the gum tissue.
Disadvantages of gold crowns:
Gold is not seen as being cosmetically pleasing.
Porcelain
and Metal Dental Crowns (PFM Crowns)
Porcelain fused to metal crowns offer a natural appearance with a better fit than a standard porcelain crown. On the down side they have a metal substructure making it difficult to replicate the translucency of natural teeth. It is possible that a darker line will appear at the edge of the crown, near the gum, as it recedes with age.
Porcelain fused-to-metal crowns offer a very natural look.
They fit to the tooth very well.
Disadvantages of porcelain and metal crowns:
They have a metal substructure and require an opaque below the porcelain.
In time, a darker line may be visible at the edge of the crown.

_______________________________________________________________________________ ______________
A dental bridge is one method to fill a gap created by a missing tooth (or teeth). Dental bridge or pontic is a custom-made false tooth or teeth, that is permanently placed between two healthy teeth, filling in the area left by a missing tooth or teeth. The bridge is held in place by crowns placed on the healthy teeth on each side of space to be filled.
1. Traditional bridgesTraditional bridges involve creating a crown for the tooth or implant on either side of the missing tooth, with a pontic in between. Traditional bridges are the most common type of bridge. |
Cantilever bridges are usually used when there are adjacent teeth on only one side of the missing tooth or teeth.
Marlyland bridges also called a resin-bonded bridges or a Maryland bonded bridges. Maryland bridges supported by a metal framework. Metal wings on each side of the bridge are bonded to the back of existing teeth.
There are three basic types of materials for dental bridges:
|
|
The all porcelain dental bridges and porcelain fused to metal (PFM) dental bridges are tooth colored bridges. PFM dental bridges are usually used to restore back teeth where the forces of chewing and grinding are strongest. All porcelain dental bridges are the most aesthetic and are used almost exclusively for front teeth where the need for strength is not as critical. Gold dental bridges are the most durable and offer the most precise fit. Gold dental bridges does not chip.
The porcelain bridges used at Dental Tourism India International Dental Center include the IPS Empress Esthetics crowns from Ivoclar Vivadent and Procera NobelEsthetics from Nobel Biocare.
The course of treatment described here is for traditional bridges, one of several options available at our dental clinic. Consult your dentist to find out what the best solution is for you, given your specific condition.
Both the preparation and placement of the temporary bridge as well as the bonding of the permanent bridge may cause some minor tenderness in the area. Some individuals may experience sensitivity in teeth. This sensitivity will disappear gradually over a few days to weeks.
Replacing missing teeth should actually make eating easier but until you become accustomed to the bridge, eat soft foods that have been cut into small pieces.
It is important to keep your remaining teeth healthy and strong as the success of the bridge. The bridge depends on the solid foundation offered by the surrounding teeth.
Dental bridges require the same regular and consistent home and professional dental care, as your natural teeth to prevent decay at the tooth-dental crown junction. To provide optimum longevity for your restorations, please follow the home care tips below:
