Dental crowns: When are they needed?
Protection of fragile teeth
Aesthetic restoration
The crowns serve as pillars to support a dental bridge.
Dental implant cover
A ceramic crown can be placed on an implant to replace a missing tooth.
The 3D scanner, ideal for digital impressions
The intraoral 3D scanner creates a digital 3D image of your teeth, which the laboratory then uses to create the prosthetics
The intraoral 3D scanner creates a digital 3D image of your teeth, which the laboratory then uses to create the prosthetics(aligners, veneers, crowns and bridges) by computer. This intraoral scanner is a valuable diagnostic and digital impression-taking tool.
Manufacture of the crown
Lifespan of a crown
The average lifespan of a crown is between 10 and 20 years. Several factors influence this longevity: crown material, oral hygiene, patient habits, crown position and dental check-ups/scaling by a dental hygienist.
Bridges: different types
Treatment procedure
The placement of a dental bridge takes place over several stages, spread across multiple appointments. The exact process depends on the type of bridge chosen.
