Dental Crowns and Bridgework in Kansas City

Chances are, many of us have had at least some experience with dental crowns or tooth bridges in the past. Maybe one of our teeth became cracked or chipped, or there wasn’t enough of the original tooth left to safely replace a filling. It happens all the time. But if it’s been a while since you last had a crown, you’ll probably be surprised by the advances that have been made in crowns, bridges, and inlays over the past few years. Today’s crowns are safer, longer-lasting, and more natural-looking than ever before, and offer better protection from decay or injury, as well as improved functionality and a brighter, more natural smile!

At Blacker Family Dental, we use all-ceramic E-Max crowns on all front teeth, in order to keep your smile looking as bright and happy as possible for as long as possible.

Benefits of Dental Crowns

There are many reasons why your dentist may crown or “cap” a tooth. One of the most common is if a tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a filling material, but sometimes we also cap teeth that have been cracked or chipped, or even teeth that are discolored or oddly shaped. Dental crowns may be the best solution for:

  • Replacing a substantial filling, especially if there isn’t enough natural tooth remaining to make another filling viable or safe.
  • Protecting a weak or damaged tooth that is in danger of further damage or fracturing.
  • Restoring a tooth that has been fractured or damaged beyond repair.

Crowns require the same kinds of care that are important for your regular teeth, including brushing and flossing every day and regular trips to your KC family dentist.

Same-Day Crowns with CEREC Technology at Blacker Family Dental

At Blacker Family Dental, we now offer CEREC technology to provide same-day crowns, ensuring fast and high-quality care. We use our new CEREC machine to create custom ceramic or zirconia crowns, inlays, or onlays in a single visit, eliminating the need for multiple appointments or temporary crowns.

The process starts with a 3D scan of your teeth, which produces a precise digital model. This model is used to design a crown tailored to your specific needs. The CEREC machine then mills the crown from a block of ceramic or zirconia, ensuring an exact fit.

CEREC crowns are strong, durable, and designed for your comfort and convenience, allowing you to restore your smile in just one visit. Experience the benefits of advanced dental technology with same-day crowns at Blacker Family Dental.
