Crowns and Bridges: Restoring Your Smile at Dentiland

At Dentiland in Tijuana, MX, we understand the importance of a complete and functional smile. Missing or damaged teeth can affect your appearance and your ability to eat and speak comfortably. Led by Dr. Licon, our team offers high-quality crowns and bridges to restore both the function and aesthetics of your smile, helping you regain confidence and comfort.

What are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a custom-designed cap that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are ideal for cases where a filling isn’t sufficient to repair the tooth. At Dentiland, Dr. Licon uses crowns made from durable materials, such as porcelain, which closely mimics the look and feel of natural teeth. This ensures that your crown blends seamlessly with your smile, providing a natural, long-lasting solution.

Crowns can be beneficial for several conditions, including:

Severe Tooth Decay: When cavities are too large for fillings, crowns can offer the necessary support to protect the tooth.
Cracked or Broken Teeth: Crowns cover and strengthen weakened teeth, preventing further damage.
Root Canal Treatment: A crown can help protect the tooth structure and restore its function after a root canal.
Cosmetic Enhancements: Crowns can improve the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth, creating a more uniform smile.

Understanding Dental Bridges

A dental bridge is a prosthetic solution designed to replace one or more missing teeth by “bridging” the gap. Bridges are anchored to the natural teeth on either side of the missing tooth, with a replacement tooth (or teeth) suspended in the gap. Dentiland offers bridges that are crafted with aesthetics and functionality in mind, ensuring they look natural and provide a strong solution for missing teeth.

Bridges can be particularly helpful if you’re missing teeth due to:

Tooth Extraction: Following removing a damaged or decayed tooth, a bridge can fill the space.
Injury or Trauma: If an accident results in the loss of one or more teeth, a bridge can help improve your smile by replacing the lost teeth.
Natural Tooth Loss: Age or dental conditions can lead to tooth loss, and bridges can restore your smile’s appearance and functionality.

Benefits of Crown and Bridges

Crowns and bridges provide numerous benefits beyond enhancing the appearance of your smile. These treatments can:

Missing or damaged teeth can make eating or speaking difficult. Crowns and bridges restore full functionality, making it easier to enjoy your favorite foods and communicate confidently.

Gaps from missing teeth can lead to surrounding teeth shifting out of place. By filling the space, bridges help maintain your smile’s alignment.

Unlike removable dentures, bridges are fixed, providing a stable, comfortable solution for tooth replacement.

A complete smile can enhance your self-esteem and help you feel more confident in social and professional settings.

The Dentiland Crowns and Bridges Process

Consultation and Assessment
Dr. Licon begins by assessing your oral health to determine the best treatment approach. During your consultation, she will discuss your goals, address any questions, and explain the procedure, ensuring you feel informed and comfortable.
Preparation and Impressions
If a crown or bridge is needed, the adjacent teeth may be prepared to provide a stable foundation. Then, precise impressions are taken, allowing our lab to create custom crowns or bridges that fit your mouth perfectly and look natural.
Temporary Crown or Bridge
While your permanent restoration is being crafted, Dr. Licon may place a temporary crown or bridge to protect the prepared area. This temporary solution allows you to continue normal functions until the final restoration is ready.
Final Placement
Once your custom crown or bridge is ready, Dr. Licon carefully adjusts and bonds it in place. She will ensure the fit is comfortable and seamless, with a natural look and feel that blends with your existing teeth.
Follow-Up and Care
Our team will guide you on caring for your new crown or bridge, including advice on oral hygiene practices to maintain their longevity. With the right care, crowns and bridges can last many years, giving you a reliable, long-term solution for restoring your smile.

Caring for Your Crowns and Bridges

Crowns and bridges are durable, but proper oral hygiene is key to keeping them in top condition. Here are some tips from Dr. Licon and the Dentiland team to ensure long-lasting results:

Brush and Floss Daily: Use a soft-bristled brush and fluoride toothpaste to clean around your crown or bridge, and floss carefully to prevent plaque buildup.
Avoid Hard or Sticky Foods: Chewing on ice, hard candy, or other hard items can damage crowns or loosen bridges.
Visit Dentiland for Regular Check-Ups: Routine exams allow Dr. Licon to check the stability of your crown or bridge and address any issues before they worsen.
