Dental Crowns & Bridges in Oviedo
When a tooth is damaged or missing, crowns and bridges restore strength, function, and a natural appearance. At Innovative Dental & Orthodontics, Dr. Amit Kamat, Dr. Maitri Patel, and Dr. David George craft custom crowns and bridges using advanced digital impressions and high-strength, tooth-colored materials designed to blend seamlessly with your smile and last for years.
Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a durable, tooth-shaped “cap” placed over a prepared tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. We prioritize materials that offer both exceptional durability and superior esthetics—so your crown is virtually indistinguishable from a natural tooth.
Crowns are recommended to protect a weak or cracked tooth, restore a broken or worn tooth, support a large filling, cover an implant, or protect a tooth after root canal treatment.
Why Choose a Crown?
Strength & Protection
A crown fully encases a vulnerable tooth, preventing further cracking or decay and restoring your ability to chew with confidence.
Natural Aesthetics
Modern ceramic and zirconia crowns are color-matched and shaped to mimic natural enamel for a beautiful, undetectable result.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth to the natural teeth or implants on either side of the gap. Bridges restore function, improve appearance, and help keep your remaining teeth from shifting.
A bridge may be right for you if you want to replace missing teeth in a row, restore chewing and balance your bite, prevent neighboring teeth from drifting, or improve speech and esthetics.
What to Expect
1. Consultation & Diagnosis
A thorough exam with digital X-rays or 3D imaging confirms whether a crown or bridge is the best solution and plans any prep work needed.
3. Temporary Restoration
A custom-fitted temporary restoration protects your tooth and maintains your bite while your permanent crown or bridge is crafted.
2. Preparation & Digital Impressions
Under local anesthesia, the tooth (or abutment teeth) is gently reshaped, then an intraoral scanner captures a precise 3D digital impression.
4. Final Placement
Your permanent crown or bridge is checked for fit, bite, and color, then bonded securely into place—restoring full function and beauty.
