No Need To Lose A Tooth

Tooth crowns in Riverside can hold a weakened tooth together and make it stronger than ever...

As teeth become ravaged by decay and worn down overtime, they are subject to being chipped, cracked, or broken. This damage eventually leads to teeth being lost or extracted. Losing teeth is a serious matter that not only ruins a smile and your facial features but more importantly, undermines your ability to eat properly and get the nourishment your body requires. As dental science has progressed, the use of better designed, custom-made crowns can save badly damaged teeth and avoid having to replace them much sooner than needed. If you need a root canal, dental crowns are the preferred method for strengthening a tooth that has been hollowed out to remove infected tooth nerves. Teeth with dental crowns look great and work as your natural teeth would.

They enhance the appearance of your teeth, while adding significantly to the overall beauty of your smile.

Crowns Will Restore Your Dental Health

Give new life to a tooth that is having trouble, the process only requires a few simple steps...

At Dental Specialists of Riverside, our crowns are professionally designed, made of quality materials, and handcrafted to match your existing teeth. Your initial visit will involve an examination and x-rays so the tooth can be prepared for the new crown. The next step will be to create an impression of your tooth that will be sent to our lab for a custom fitting later on. Before receiving your permanent crown, our Riverside dentist will place a temporary crown on your damaged tooth to protect it. At the second appointment with your Riverside dentist, your new crown will be examined for proper fit and color. Then the temporary is removed and the surface of your natural tooth is cleaned thoroughly to enhance the bonding process. The new crown is then placed and adjusted for a perfect fit. The last step is to cement the new crown to the remaining tooth so that the restored tooth is as strong and beautiful as your original tooth. Later appointments may be scheduled to make sure your new crown looks and feels just like it should. If you would like to schedule an appointment for dental crowns with our Riverside dentist, call us at (951) 689-0701. We are always available to take care of your dental needs.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are a solid solution for missing teeth. They are titanium posts surgically implanted into the jawbone that fuse with the bone over time. After the implant fuses with bone, we then attach a tooth (or teeth) to the implant. You have the option to replace one, several, or all teeth with implants.

Dentures

Dentures are a type of dental prosthetic that can be used to replace missing teeth. Dentures can be removable or fixed, and they can be used to improve both the function and appearance of your smile. It is important to consult with a qualified dentist to determine if they are the right option for you.

Cavities & Fillings

At Dental Specialists of Riverside, we always try to treat cavities in their early stages, stopping tooth decay from becoming a bigger problem. After the decayed areas are removed, we restore the natural shape and function of teeth with filling material. Fillings also help protect teeth from further decay.

Frequently Asked Questions

You might need a crown if you have a cracked, decayed, or damaged tooth that cannot be repaired with a filling. Bridges are recommended when one or more adjacent teeth are missing, causing difficulties in chewing, speaking, or maintaining proper alignment of other teeth.

Typically, getting a crown or a bridge requires two appointments. The first is for preparation and impression making, while the second is for fitting the crown or bridge. Each visit usually lasts for about an hour to an hour and a half.

The procedure itself is usually painless due to the use of local anesthetics. Some patients may experience slight discomfort or sensitivity after the anesthetic wears off, which usually subsides in a few days.

With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, crowns and bridges can last between 10 to 15 years, and even longer in some cases.

No, they are designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, making them virtually undetectable.

Maintain good oral hygiene practices: brush twice daily, floss regularly, and attend routine dental check-ups. Be cautious of hard and sticky foods that could potentially damage your crown or bridge.
