A weak, cracked, or painful tooth can make eating uncomfortable and smiling a stressful experience. Missing teeth can also cause nearby teeth to shift, leading to bite problems and more damage over time.
Dental crowns and bridges can restore strength, comfort, and a beautiful appearance to your complete smile. At Pollard Dental, we’re proud to provide convenient same-day crowns and dental bridges in Silverdale, WA, to help you smile again without the wait!
Sometimes, teeth undergo significant damage due to cavities, excessive bite forces, trauma, or even normal wear and tear. If root canal therapy is needed to salvage a severely compromised nerve, the tooth may be left especially fragile. Many situations can leave teeth at risk of loss if treatment is bypassed.
Dental crowns, also known as tooth caps, enable these teeth to be rebuilt and covered with materials that mimic the appearance of a natural tooth. Not only are most capped teeth indistinguishable from natural teeth, but they’re also highly secure and comfortable. Crowns can be crafted to repair a single tooth, multiple teeth (including the entire mouth), or in conjunction with dental implants to fill a space. In fact, when missing teeth are part of the equation, special consideration might be given to placing a dental bridge or implants.
Dental bridges replace one or more missing teeth with a false tooth that’s fused to dental crowns on both sides. We can anchor these crowns to stable natural teeth or dental implants on either side, which will hold the false tooth (or teeth) in place.
A dental bridge fills the gap, preventing surrounding teeth from shifting out of place. This helps restore your bite, makes chewing easier, and prevents slurring and speech difficulties. It also helps to reduce excess strain on your remaining teeth, preventing damage and protecting your long-term oral health.
The cost of a crown or dental bridge can vary based on materials, complexity, how many teeth are involved, and whether you need sedation to help you stay comfortable.
During your visit, we will clearly explain all your options and expected expenses, so you know exactly what to expect. With flexible financing solutions, we make it easy to get the care you need without unnecessary stress.
