Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dental crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that completely covers a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its strength, shape, and appearance. Crowns are commonly recommended for teeth with large fillings, fractures, severe decay, or after root canal treatment. At Prime Smile Dental in Rancho Cucamonga, crowns are designed to blend naturally with your surrounding teeth while protecting the long-term health of your smile.
What is a dental bridge?
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. It works by anchoring an artificial tooth to the neighboring natural teeth or dental implants. Dental bridges restore your ability to chew and speak properly while also preventing nearby teeth from shifting out of position.
How long do crowns and bridges last?
Dental crowns and bridges are designed to be durable and long-lasting. With proper oral hygiene, regular dental exams, and professional cleanings, they can last 10–15 years or longer. Avoiding habits such as teeth grinding, chewing ice, or biting hard objects can help extend the life of your restoration.
What are same-day crowns?
Same-day crowns use advanced digital scanning and milling technology to design, create, and place a custom dental crown in a single appointment. Instead of taking traditional impressions and waiting weeks for a lab to fabricate the crown, our Rancho Cucamonga dental office can digitally design your crown and place it the same day, eliminating the need for temporary crowns and multiple visits.
Are dental crowns and bridges natural looking?
Yes. Modern crowns and bridges are made from high-quality ceramic materials designed to closely match the color, shape, and translucency of natural teeth. At Prime Smile Dental, we carefully customize each restoration to ensure it blends seamlessly with your smile.
Does getting a crown or bridge hurt?
The procedure is typically very comfortable. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area so patients feel little to no discomfort during treatment. After the procedure, mild sensitivity may occur temporarily, but it usually resolves quickly.
