What Are Dental Crowns And Bridges?
Dental crowns and bridges are essential restorative treatments Winnisquam Dental provides in Winnisquam, NH. Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover damaged or decayed teeth, while bridges are prosthetic devices used to replace missing teeth. These dental solutions restore the functionality of your teeth and enhance your smile, improving both aesthetics and oral health.
Dental Crowns: How Does It Work?
Dental crowns, or caps, are custom-made tooth-shaped restorations that encase a damaged or weakened tooth. Crafted from high-quality materials such as porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys, dental crowns are designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, ensuring seamless integration into your smile.
Dental crowns work by completely covering a tooth above the gum line. The process typically involves two appointments at our state-of-the-art dental office. During the first visit, our skilled dentists will prepare the affected tooth by removing any decay or damage and shaping it to accommodate the crown. We'll then take precise impressions of your tooth, which will guide the dental laboratory to fabricate your custom crown. The following are some of the benefits of dental crowns:
- Dental crowns, also known as dental caps, are custom-made restorations that encase damaged or decayed teeth.
- Crowns provide strength, protection, and improved aesthetics for teeth with significant decay, fractures, or discoloration.
- They are crafted from durable materials like porcelain or ceramic, ensuring a natural appearance and long-lasting results.
- Dental crowns can also be placed on top of dental implants to replace missing teeth, restoring both function and appearance.
Restore Your Smile With Dental Bridges
Missing teeth can significantly impact not only your smile but also your overall oral health. Fortunately, dental bridges offer a reliable and effective solution to restore your dental aesthetics, improve your bite functionality, and maintain the health of your surrounding teeth.
So, how does a dental bridge work? A dental bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth, known as pontics, supported by dental crowns on adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. The pontics fill in the gap left by missing teeth, bridging the space and creating a seamless smile. Here are some of the notable benefits of dental bridges:
- Dental bridges are reliable solutions for filling the gaps caused by one or more missing teeth.
- These prosthetic devices consist of artificial teeth, called pontics, supported by adjacent healthy teeth or dental implants.
- Bridges restore your ability to chew and speak properly and prevent the surrounding teeth from shifting out of position.

We’ve had great experiences with both Dr. Kris and Dr. Blackwelder, they have worked together with us to come up with treatment plans. Communication has been top notch!

From the minute we walked in the door it was a warm and welcoming visit. We started our appt on time, and Kris came out and introduced herself to both myself and my son. I’ve never seen that in my many visits to a dentist! She was very kind and thorough with any thing she discussed or even did during my sons exam. He was a little timid about going but she had him laughing the whole time! We are lucky to have found such a comfortable environment!

Both of the Dr.'s have taken care of all of us at one time or another, and they are always wonderful, keeping the experience as pain free & speedy as possible. Mike, at the front desk, is so helpful & kind, and always has a smile on his face! We are lifetime patients for sure!
