Whether it's one damaged tooth or a gap that needs a fixed bridge, our Dental Crowns And Bridges plan includes an honest repair-or-replace assessment before committing to anything.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Dental Crowns And Bridges is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
Digital impressions also tend to produce a more accurate final fit than traditional molds.
Zirconia, e.max, and porcelain-fused-to-metal each have different strength, appearance, and cost tradeoffs — we'll walk through them clearly.
Heavily damaged teeth sometimes need a post-and-core buildup before a crown can be placed securely.
The full cost, including any buildup or temporary crown, is quoted before treatment starts.
Here's the range of Dental Crowns And Bridges our Hydesville team handles most, described the way we'd explain it chairside rather than in marketing language.
Zirconia is highly durable and well-suited for back teeth that handle heavy chewing forces. This tends to be our go-to recommendation for molars and premolars.
It's slightly less impact-resistant than zirconia, which factors into where we recommend using it. Most patients choose e.max specifically for how natural it looks next to surrounding teeth.
PFM crowns combine a metal substructure with a porcelain outer layer, offering a proven, durable option at a lower cost than all-ceramic choices. Cost tends to be lower than zirconia or e.max for comparable durability.
We assess whether the anchor teeth are strong enough to support a bridge before recommending this option over an implant. Bridges are typically completed in two visits with a temporary in between.
When a tooth has lost significant structure — often after a root canal — a buildup provides a stable base for the crown. We'll show you the X-ray reasoning if a buildup is recommended.
We'll tell you honestly if a repair will realistically hold up, rather than patching something that needs full replacement. Replacement is recommended when the underlying tooth or fit has changed significantly.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
Describe the damaged tooth or gap and we'll schedule an exam and X-ray, often within the same week.
You'll understand the tradeoffs before choosing a material.
Any post-and-core buildup is included in the quote if needed.
The permanent crown or bridge is fitted, checked for bite, and adjusted until it feels right.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Dental Crowns And Bridges treatment with us in the past year.
“They walked me through zirconia versus e.max for my case and I ended up choosing based on which tooth was actually visible when I smile.”
“Digital impression meant no more gagging on that awful putty tray from my last dentist. Fit was perfect on the first try too.”
“My old bridge was failing and they gave me an honest comparison between repairing it and just replacing it outright.”
“Post-and-core buildup after my root canal made sense once they showed me the X-ray. Crown has held up great since.”
“PFM crown on a back molar was the practical, affordable choice and they didn't push the pricier options on me.”
Straight answers to what people actually want to know before committing to Dental Crowns And Bridges.
Zirconia is very durable and good for back teeth; e.max offers superior esthetics for front teeth; PFM is a proven, lower-cost option combining metal and porcelain.
Regular checkups help us catch wear or damage early, extending the restoration's lifespan.
Only if the tooth has lost significant structure, often after a root canal — we'll assess and show you the reasoning.
It depends on the health of the neighboring teeth and your long-term goals — we'll compare both options honestly.
If the underlying fit or tooth structure has changed significantly, replacement is usually the more durable choice.
Some offices offer same-day crown options; ask if that applies to your specific case.
