Protective Helmets For Damaged Teeth
Dental Crowns Brisbane, Carina
Dental crowns are prosthesis that cover, repair and protect damaged teeth. They are much like helmets that are created to fit securely over a tooth, and will look and function like a natural tooth. Each crown is precision-made so it comfortably fits, and no matter if a tooth is cracked, chipped, or broken, a crown can look and feel like your own tooth. Here are some of the ways that dental crowns are used:
Cover and protect a tooth that has had root canal therapy.
Works with a dental implant to replace a missing tooth.
Dental crowns are a long term solution to repair and protect damaged teeth and may be manufactured with resin or porcelain. Porcelain are the preferred material because it looks and feels most like a natural tooth and provides the most durability.

Multiple Damaged Teeth?
If you have multiple teeth that are damaged, dental crowns may be the right solution to repair and protect them. However, it does depend upon placement of the teeth and how severely damaged they are.
Our dentists at Carina Gardens Dental will always work to save your natural teeth with a dental crown, so you keep the tooth root, which keeps your bone structure intact. But if your teeth are damaged or weakened due to problems such as a gum infection, we will work to heal that before recommending dental crowns.
For patients who have multiple missing teeth in a row, or who have one missing tooth and are not ready for a dental implant, a dental bridge might be the ideal solution.

Dental Bridges at Carina Gardens Dental, Brisbane
A dental bridge is a dental solution that uses a prosthesis to replace a missing tooth, or a few missing teeth in a row, with a type of anchoring to hold it in place. This is an affordable option to replace missing teeth and are a popular solution to restore bite and function while at the same time restoring your smile.
Sometimes dental implants may not be ideal for patients who need to replace missing teeth. Some reasons include lack of bone density, gum infection or affordability. Patients may also not be ready for a dental implant and so will use a dental bridge until they decide to move to the more permanent solution of an implant. Scheduling an exam and evaluation with our dentists will help you get all the information you need to make an informed decision.

Dental Bridge Types and Styles
Dental bridges come in a few different styles to accommodate the variety of situations that may lead to a missing tooth or teeth. Quite often, the placement of the bridge and your oral health will be large factors in determining what type of bridge will be suitable for your needs. The following are the different styles of dental bridges available.
Traditional Bridge
Consists of a crown at each end of the device to anchor the bridge into place, and then a fake tooth (or teeth) in the middle that can replace one or more missing teeth. These are comfortable and lightweight and help to evenly distribute bite force during eating or chewing.
Maryland Bridge
Uses “wings” to secure the bridge into place, instead of crowns. Some patients prefer this bridge because there is no need to alter the anchor teeth for dental crowns. This dental solution is cost-effective, but requires a strong foundation to secure the bridge into place.
Cantilever Bridge
Is used when only one tooth is available to use as an anchor. This special type of bridge is secured onto the one available tooth and is often used toward the back of the mouth at the end of the tooth row.
Implant-Supported Bridge
Utilised dental implants that are placed into the jawbone, then used to support the bridge of replacement teeth. This type of prosthesis is not removable and adds bonus benefits such as preserving jawbone and easy maintenance that is similar to caring for your natural teeth.
