Using dental crowns over implants for tooth replacement
Dental crowns are used to replace teeth when a patient is missing one or more of their natural teeth. This can occur for various reasons, including tooth decay, damaged roots, or injury. When this happens, it is essential for the patient to seek treatment to restore the function and appearance of their smile. Dr. Monti Harpalani of Vivid Dental in Houston, Texas, is a dental professional ready to help with the replacement of a missing tooth with cosmetic crowns.
How are dental crowns used for tooth replacement?
Dental crowns work by being placed over an implant that is surgically inserted into the patient’s jawbone. Once the implant has fused to the bone tissue through a process known as osseointegration, an abutment will then be attached on top of it. This supports restorative materials such as porcelain or composite resin, which create natural-looking restorations that mimic the look of the existing, remaining teeth. When the dental crown is created by the team at Vivid Dental, it will be impossible for others to tell you’ve had a replacement!
Am I a proper candidate for a dental implant and crown restoration?
When it comes to tooth replacement solutions, you have several options. Dr. Monti Harpalani and his team are committed to helping you choose the one that best suits your budget, unique needs, and lifestyle. During a consultation appointment, patients can ask questions about the restorations available at our office and determine which one is best for their smile. Dental implants require patients to have sufficient bone in the jaw available to ensure that placement is successful.
