What are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns, often referred to as caps, are custom-made restorations that encase damaged teeth, restoring their shape, size, strength, and overall appearance. They repair teeth that are severely decayed, cracked, or weakened due to large fillings. Dental crowns can also be utilized to improve the aesthetics of misshapen or discolored teeth, creating a harmonious and natural-looking smile.

The Dental Crown Process

If you’re considering dental crowns in Smyrna or East Point, GA, Dr. Jarrett Manning will guide you through a seamless process to rejuvenate your smile. Here’s what to expect:

1. Consultation and Examination: During your first visit, Dr. Jarrett Manning will thoroughly examine your teeth and oral health. X-rays and impressions may be taken to assess the extent of the damage and plan the appropriate treatment.
2. Tooth Preparation: The next step involves preparing the affected tooth for the crown. This process entails removing any decayed or damaged portions of the tooth and shaping it to accommodate the crown. Don’t worry; you’ll be kept comfortable with the use of local anesthesia.
3. Impressions: Precise impressions of your tooth will be taken and sent to a dental laboratory to craft a custom-made crown that perfectly fits your mouth.
4. Temporary Crown: While your permanent crown is being fabricated, Dr. Manning will place a temporary crown to protect the prepared tooth.
5. Crown Placement: Once your permanent crown is ready, you’ll return to Dr. Manning’s office for its placement. He will ensure the crown fits accurately, matches the color of your natural teeth, and make any necessary adjustments before bonding it securely into place.
6. Final Touches: Dr. Manning will check your bite and make any final adjustments to ensure comfort and functionality.

What are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges are another valuable solution for replacing missing teeth. As the name suggests, a dental bridge bridges the gap left by one or more missing teeth, helping to restore your smile’s appearance and functionality. Bridges consist of artificial teeth, called pontics, which are anchored in place by dental crowns on adjacent healthy teeth.

Dental Bridge Process

If you’re considering dental bridges in Smyrna or East Point, GA, Dr. Jarrett Manning will guide you through a similar, patient-focused process:

1. Initial Assessment: Your journey towards a complete smile begins with an initial consultation with Dr. Manning. He will evaluate your oral health, discuss your treatment options, and address any concerns or questions you may have.
2. Tooth Preparation: The teeth on either side of the gap will be prepared for dental crowns. Similar to single dental crowns, any decayed or damaged portions will be removed, and the teeth will be shaped to accommodate the crowns.
3. Impressions: Detailed impressions of your teeth will be taken and sent to a dental laboratory to fabricate a custom bridge that fits comfortably and blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
4. Temporary Bridge: While your permanent bridge is being crafted, Dr. Manning will place a temporary bridge to protect your prepared teeth and maintain aesthetics.
5. Bridge Placement: Once your custom bridge is ready, Dr. Manning will ensure a proper fit and make any necessary adjustments before permanently bonding it in place.
6. Bite and Comfort Check: To guarantee optimal comfort and functionality, Dr. Manning will check your bite and ensure that your new dental bridge feels natural and secure.
