Crown and Bridges
What are Crowns and Bridges?
Crowns and bridges are fixed prosthetic devices used to replace missing or damaged teeth. A crown is a cap that covers a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, size, and strength, while also improving its appearance. A bridge, on the other hand, is used to fill the gap created by one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the surrounding natural teeth or implants.
Procedure:
- Examination and Consultation: The procedure begins with a thorough examination of your oral health, including X-rays to assess the condition of the teeth and surrounding bone structure. Dr. Aishwarya Gangawane performs a detailed evaluation to determine the appropriate treatment plan.
- Tooth Preparation: For crowns, the damaged tooth is shaped to accommodate the crown, ensuring a secure fit. For bridges, the adjacent teeth are prepared as they will serve as anchors for the bridge.
- Impression and Fabrication: After preparing the teeth, impressions are taken to create custom-made crowns or bridges that match the patient's natural tooth color and structure. Temporary crowns or bridges are often placed while the permanent ones are being fabricated.
- Fitting and Placement: Once the permanent crowns or bridges are ready, they are fitted and checked for comfort and proper alignment. The prosthetic is then cemented into place.
Benefits of Crowns and Bridges:
- Restores Functionality: Crowns and bridges restore the ability to chew and speak properly, improving the patient’s quality of life.
- Aesthetically Pleasing: These prosthetics are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing your smile.
- Durability: With proper care, crowns and bridges can last for many years, providing a long-term solution for dental issues.
- Prevents Shifting: Replacing missing teeth with bridges helps maintain the proper alignment of the remaining teeth, preventing shifting and other complications.
Complete Dentures
What are Complete Dentures?
Complete dentures are removable appliances that replace all the teeth in either the upper or lower jaw, or both. They are a popular choice for individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth due to decay, injury, or other oral health conditions. These prosthetic devices are custom-made to fit the patient’s mouth, providing both aesthetic and functional restoration.
Procedure:
- Initial Consultation: Dr. Aishwarya Gangawane conducts an initial examination to assess the patient's oral health and discuss the treatment options available.
- Impressions and Measurements: Precise measurements and impressions of the patient’s gums and any remaining teeth are taken to ensure that the dentures will fit comfortably and function effectively.
- Trial Denture Fitting: A trial denture is created, allowing the patient to try it on and provide feedback. Adjustments are made to the shape, size, and color of the dentures at this stage to ensure the perfect fit.
- Final Fitting: Once the final dentures are ready, they are fitted into the patient’s mouth. Dr. Gangawane ensures that they fit comfortably and function well for chewing and speaking.
- Follow-up Appointments: After the dentures are placed, follow-up appointments may be scheduled to check for any necessary adjustments, ensuring long-term comfort.
Benefits of Complete Dentures:
- Restores Smile and Confidence: Complete dentures offer a natural-looking solution for patients who have lost their teeth, allowing them to smile confidently.
- Improved Oral Function: With dentures, patients can eat and speak more comfortably, which significantly enhances their quality of life.
- Cost-effective: Dentures are often more affordable than other restorative options, making them an accessible choice for many patients.
- Easy to Maintain: Dentures are removable, making them easy to clean and maintain, ensuring good oral hygiene.
