Crowns and Bridges are the Solution for You!

White Smiles Family Dentistry can help patients with severely damaged and missing teeth recover their beautiful smiles. Our team of dentists and staff members are expertly trained in using crowns and bridges to restore and replace teeth. White Smiles Family Dentistry is proud to offer cosmetic restorative services at both our Spring Lake Park, MN and Albertville, MN locations. Crowns are typically used to restore damaged teeth that cannot be corrected with fillings. A dental bridge allows your dentist to fill in the space caused by one or more missing teeth by using false teeth with a crown on either end. White Smiles Family Dentistry is proud to offer our patients in-house labs at both locations that are equipped with the cutting-edge technology to create crowns and bridges. You can be confident in our ability to deliver the best patient experience and the finest craftsmanship in creating your crowns and dental bridges.

Replace Missing Teeth with a Dental Bridge

Our teeth work together to help us chew and speak, and to support our facial muscles. When teeth are missing, neighboring teeth will try to compensate by shifting, and this causes issues such as misaligned bites, difficulty chewing, and pain resulting from stress on the teeth and jaws. A dental bridge – which is made up of one or more artificial teeth, supported on either end by a crown – will alleviate the strain caused by missing teeth, while blending in seamlessly with your natural teeth. If you have one or more missing teeth that create a gap in your smile, a dental bridge is the solution you’ve been searching for! During your first appointment, the dentist will take diagnostic images in order to examine the tooth and surrounding bone. The area will then be numbed to allow your dentist to clean out any decay or infection. Next, the tooth will be filed and shaped in preparation for your crown, and impressions will be taken by your dentist for crown fabrication. A temporary crown will be placed until your permanent crown is ready. White Smiles Family Dentistry will use our own in-house milling machine to create your customized crown from porcelain or zirconia, as these strong and durable materials are the best options to match the color of your other teeth. At your next visit, this temporary crown will be removed and replaced with your new permanent crown. The fit and color of your crown will be double-checked, then your crown will be cemented in place. With proper maintenance and care, you can expect your crown to last 25 years or more! You may experience sensitivity after receiving your dental crown, but this will dissipate over time. Simply contact our office right away with any questions about our crowns and their care, or if your crown becomes damaged in any way.

Damage to your teeth can happen in a variety of ways, and this damage often results in pain and a lack of confidence in your smile. Tooth decay and trauma are common maladies, as are teeth left weakened from root canal therapy. Over time, some teeth can even lose their shape and/or become severely discolored. Dental crowns can solve these issues by mimicking the look of natural teeth, while protecting the damaged tooth it covers. During your first appointment, the dentist will take diagnostic images in order to examine the tooth and surrounding bone. The area will then be numbed to allow your dentist to clean out any decay or infection. Next, the tooth will be filed and shaped in preparation for your crown, and impressions will be taken by your dentist for crown fabrication. A temporary crown will be placed until your permanent crown is ready. White Smiles Family Dentistry will use our own in-house milling machine to create your customized crown from porcelain or zirconia, as these strong and durable materials are the best options to match the color of your other teeth. At your next visit, this temporary crown will be removed and replaced with your new permanent crown. The fit and color of your crown will be double-checked, then your crown will be cemented in place. With proper maintenance and care, you can expect your crown to last 25 years or more! You may experience sensitivity after receiving your dental crown, but this will dissipate over time. Simply contact our office right away with any questions about our crowns and their care, or if your crown becomes damaged in any way. During your first appointment, your dentist will prepare the teeth that will support your dental bridge by filing and reshaping them. An impression will then be made of the area, which will allow our lab to fabricate your dental bridge using our very own milling machines. A temporary bridge will be placed until your permanent bridge is ready and to protect your newly shaped teeth. Then, at your next appointment, your dentist will remove the temporary bridge and replace it with your permanent bridge and supporting crowns. If you exercise proper maintenance and care, your dental bridge could last ten years or more! You’ll be able to contact us right away if you have any questions about how to care for your dental bridge, or if you feel you need an adjustment for a better fit. Soon, you’ll begin enjoying the many benefits of your dental bridge, including no more gaps in your smile, an end to shifting teeth, support for facial muscles and surrounding bone, and best of all, better chewing, speech and oral health!
