Dental Crowns and Bridges at Kedzie Dental Clinic

Dental Crowns and Bridges (1)

Every tooth has a purpose. Your teeth help you chew food, speak clearly, and keep the rest of your smile properly aligned. Tooth loss is not a normal part of aging, teeth could sometimes be lost because of decay, injury, gum disease or any other dental problem. Replacing a missing tooth or protecting one that is badly damaged is important for your oral health and daily comfort.

Dental Crowns and Bridges are safe, effective restorative dentistry options that could strengthen damaged teeth and replace missing ones. A crown covers and protects a weakened tooth through Dental Crown Treatment, while a bridge fills the space left by one or more missing teeth. With the right treatment, you could restore your bite, improve your smile, and feel more comfortable eating and speaking. Understanding the Dental Bridge Cost can also help you explore your restorative dental care options.

What Are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a custom-made covering placed over a damaged or weakened tooth.It restores the tooth’s shape, strength, size, and appearance. Crowns may be recommended when a tooth is:

A crown helps protect the remaining tooth structure and helps you to bite and chew more comfortably. At Kedzie Dental Clinic, we carefully match your crown’s color and shape with your natural teeth for a result that looks and feels natural.

What Are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth. It is an artificial tooth. This is called a pontic and supported by crowns attached to the near teeth. A bridge closes the gap in your smile and helps restore everyday function.

Replacing missing teeth is important because surrounding teeth could shift into the open space. This may affect your bite and make cleaning more difficult. We also help with additional dental problems. A well designed bridge could help maintain your smile’s alignment and support more balanced chewing.

Benefits of Crowns and Bridges

Choosing restorative dental care could give many benefits like :

  • This improved ability to chew and speak well
  • They give natural looking smile
  • Give protection for weakened teeth
  • Support for your bite and tooth alignment
  • Reduced risk of teeth shifting into empty spaces
  • Greater comfort and confidence

Our goal is not simply to repair a tooth. We want your restoration to feel comfortable, function properly and blend naturally with your smile.

Are Crowns or Bridges Right for You?

The best solution depends on your dental health like location of the missing or damaged tooth, your bite, and your personal goals. Some patients may benefit from a traditional bridge, while others may be better candidates for an implant supported restoration or another treatment.

During your consultation at Kedzie Dental Clinic, we would explain your choices in simple language. We believe you should feel informed and confident.

Caring for Your New Restoration

Crowns and bridges are designed for daily use, but good oral hygiene is very important. Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste,floss daily, and clean carefully around and under a bridge. Regular dental checkups help us to monitor your restoration and overall oral health.

Avoid chewing hard objects such as ice or pens. If you grind or clench your teeth, ask us whether a custom nightguard may help protect your smile.

FAQS

Everything you need to know about Dental Crowns and Bridges

Dental crowns cover and protect damaged teeth and dental bridges replace missing teeth. Both restorations improve chewing, speaking, tooth alignment, and better your smile.

A dental crown could restore a cracked, weakened, decayed, discolored, misshapen, or root canal treated tooth. Your dentist would check its condition and give you the right treatment.

A dental bridge uses crowns attached to neighboring teeth to support an artificial tooth.This is called a pontic.It closes gaps and helps maintain proper chewing and teeth alignment.

Treatment generally needs multiple appointments. Your dentist would prepare the tooth, take scans or impressions and place a temporary restoration then permanently fits and adjusts the final crown or bridge.

Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss every day, and clean beneath bridges carefully. Do attend regular checkups, don’t chew hard objects, and discuss nightguards if grinding occurs.

We've been coming here for years, and every visit has been a great experience. The environment is always warm and welcoming, and my family and I know our concerns will be heard and addressed with care. The staff is incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive. Dr. Shaikh is exceptionally knowledgeable and truly the best at what she does. Can't recommend this place enough!

I’ve been coming to Kedzie Dental Clinic for the past year after looking for over five years for a dentist and staff with skill, integrity, and kindness. Dr. Khairunnisa Shaikh and literally everyone at Kedzie Dental Clinic is exceptional beyond compare. They also have a membership that makes some costs of services cheaper and they accept Care Credit for 0% interest equal payments for 6+ months at a time. I’ve had CT scans, X-Rays, Invisalign treatment, three tooth extractions, bone grafts, root canal, fillings, cleanings and a crown. Everything was necessary since I’ve been neglecting my teeth for years. And the team focuses on doing the least amount of work possible. If something isn’t essential then it isn’t done. Unlike other places where patients are unfortunately taken advantage of due to lack of knowledge, research, age, or income. May God bless everyone at Kedzie Dental clinic and give them a long, healthy, and beautiful life so that they can continue blessing the world with their integrity, kindness, and skill.

Let’s face it: going to the dentist is never fun, but I felt at ease as soon as I stepped into Kedzie Dental Clinic. Dr. Shaikh and Melissa are absolutely fantastic. I’ve had dentists and hygienists who’ve gone "medieval torture" on me, so I know it takes incredible skill to be gentle, precise, and communicative. They are truly masters of their craft. I wish I found Kedzie Dental Clinic sooner in my life but better late than never. As an added bonus, Melissa gave me a paraffin hand wax and under-eye masks to wear during my procedures, it was such a thoughtful touch!

I took my mom for a teeth cleaning. She turned out to have gum disease. Not only she recovered from bleeding gums and bad breath she feels so confident about herself. They were so nice at kedzie dental they also gave her a spa treatment with paraffin wax and eye mask. Doctor shaikh and Dr. Lysa are GREAT and very well informed.

⸻ My experience at Kedzie Dental Clinic has been truly exceptional. The dental implant service was carried out smoothly, and every step was explained clearly. Dr. Sheikh and the team provided not only expert treatment but also genuine care and reassurance. I had been suffering from severe tooth pain due to a poorly performed root canal treatment done abroad, and they addressed the issue effectively. I’m extremely thankful for their dedication and highly recommend their services.

Dr. Shaikh is by far the BEST dentist I have ever met and convinced the best one there is. I honestly don’t think you will get a dentist better than her. She is a highly skilled and unbelievably thorough perfectionist. Her heart and soul goes into her work. I have a ton of dental issues and a phobia of dentists. She has been working on my teeth for sometime now. With her calm demeanor and high skill set, I feel comfortable enough for her to work on me. She communicates every process each step of the way and makes sure that you are comfortable throughout the entire procedure. As a patient, I can see the care she puts into my teeth. I honestly don’t think there is a higher level of human perfection than this. In addition to that she also follows up with me several times after some of my procedures to make sure I’m doing well. Anyone who goes to Dr. Sheikh will not be disappointed.

Dr. Shaikh is hands down the best dentist. She explains every step and makes sure you are comfortable the whole time. I’m so grateful for her kindness and professionalism, truly one of the best dental experiences I’ve ever had! If you are someone who gets nervous before appointment, try this place. The staff is incredibly kind and understanding they handle everything with such remarkable patience. The scheduling is easy, and the prices are affordable. From the moment you walk in you get a spa like treatment, parafin hand treatment, eye mask, a relaxing environment with beautiful smelling essential oils. Always a great experience. A big THANK YOU! everyone at Kedzie Dental for making my dental experience a positive one!
