Dental crowns are a tooth cap that cover and protect damaged individual teeth to restore a tooth’s appearance with improved durability. Zirconia crowns are created by utilizing our advanced dental technologies to create a crown from a very tough material hence esthetic and tooth color that perfectly fits over your damaged tooth. This crown fits to your tooth and mimics the size, shape and color of your natural tooth for a flawless finish. Other than being able to correct those pesky esthetic or functional concerns you may have, Zirconia crowns are completely customized to your tooth to look and feel like real teeth.
Consisting of one or more artificial teeth that are made from resin or porcelain, dental bridges provide tooth replacement by “bridging” the gap left behind by missing teeth. The crown may cover one or more teeth to properly secure the bridge and hold the artificial teeth in place. If you have one or more missing teeth, a dental bridge can fill the gap with one or more artificial teeth. If you are missing one or more teeth and natural teeth are unavailable, Dr. Obeidi may recommend Dental Implants to hold the bridge in place.
Dental crowns are fixed covers that lay over an existing tooth to return a damaged tooth to its original strength and appearance. We generally recommend a tooth crown when a tooth is too damaged to be treated with a standard filling. Similarly, dental crowns are placed to preserve a tooth after a root canal or to restore aesthetics after implant surgery.
Our in-office digital technology allows Dr. Obeidi the ability to offer flexibility and versatility to our patients. Since our dental processes are customized to our patient, our custom in-house made Zirconia crowns allow for treatment options that preserve original tooth structure, provide desired aesthetics and offer a less expensive result quickly. With the help of our in-house dental lab, Dr. Obeidi can craft crowns and dental bridges that match your facial features, face shape and skin tone. To date, digital dentistry remains the most advanced tool offering a precise way to restore the look and function of your smile. With our in house digital center, our patients are able to have a crown fabricated in-house by utilizing our Intra-oral scanner, Exocad design software, dental printer and milling machines.
We are able to design and fabricate your custom Zirconia crown and bridge in as short as a couple of days where traditional crowns often require several weeks to be fabricated and shipped from an external laboratory.
Your entire treatment process for Zirconia crown here at Smile 32 Dentistry takes approximately 24-48 hours! During this time, Dr. Obeidi will listen to your dental concerns, prepare your tooth to accept a dental crown, take a digital scan to calculate your tooth’s dimensions.
