Crowns or bridges, if a tooth is broken, for example, and let’s say there’s a big part of the tooth is fractured off, eating an amazing steak or anything like that, right? Crowns can easily restore that tooth by not only helping us to change the color, the shape, the size, and give them the proper anatomy of the tooth. Let’s say a patient had a big filling done 25 years ago. Every filling that it had done, it starts a cycle, a circle.
The day that tooth had a cavity, it started a circle. Eventually, the cavities was going to be filled. That filling’s going to last a certain number of years.
And sometimes the filling is small, it’s easy to be replaced with another small filling. But when the filling was big to begin with, a big filling, it is going to break at some point by its natural cause. Nothing a patient has to do, but it is just going to have its natural cause of wear and tear.
When that tooth breaks, crown can easily replace the structure and the function of the tooth. And by simply giving the patient back the smile, they don’t have to worry about hiding, especially if it’s a front tooth that they broke off. They don’t have to hide their smile in the pictures.
They can smile properly. They can eat anything they want without having to stress again, as long as not ice or any kind of extremely hard foods, right?
