Crowns, Bridges, or Implants?

30 January 2025
in Health, Lifestyle
Crowns, Bridges, or Implants Feature

When it comes to dental restoration, understanding the differences between crowns, bridges, and implants is essential for selecting the right treatment for various dental issues.

Each option serves a unique purpose and is suitable for different situations depending on the condition of the patient’s teeth and gums.

Lion House Dental Practice offers a comprehensive range of these services, guided by our commitment to personalised care and advanced technology.

Right now, we have an exclusive New Patient Offer: a comprehensive dental check-up for only £50, including a thorough oral cancer screening and a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Here’s a breakdown of each type, insights into when each might be appropriate, and how Lion House Dental Practice can help.

Crowns

A dental crown is a cap placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are typically used when a tooth is cracked, worn down, or has a large filling. Crowns can be made from various materials such as porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination of these materials. They are also used to complete other procedures like dental implants or as a protective cover for a tooth with a root canal.

Crowns are ideal for restoring a single tooth that has been damaged or decayed beyond what a simple filling can repair. They are also suitable for cosmetic enhancements.

Bridges

Dental bridges are used to fill a gap created by one or more missing teeth. A bridge is comprised of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap (these anchoring teeth are known as abutments) and a false tooth/teeth in between, known as pontics. These can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination of these materials.

Bridges are suitable for patients who have one or more missing teeth and possess healthy teeth on either side of the open space. Bridges help prevent the remaining teeth from shifting, which can lead to a bad bite and other complications.

Implants

Implants are a durable and effective solution for replacing missing teeth. Unlike bridges or crowns, implants replace the entire tooth, including the root. This process involves implanting a titanium post into the jawbone, which then fuses with the bone over several months. Once secure, a crown is attached to the implant to provide the appearance and function of a natural tooth.

Implants are an excellent option for individuals who have lost teeth due to injury, decay, or gum disease. They require sufficient bone structure for placement and a commitment to thorough oral hygiene. Implants are favoured for their durability and for preserving the jawbone. Lion House Dental Practice utilises advanced AI X-ray diagnostic tools to enhance the precision of implant placements.

Choosing the Right Option

The choice between crowns, bridges, and implants at Lion House Dental Practice depends on several factors including the condition of your teeth, your overall oral health, and your specific dental needs. Patients with good oral hygiene and a healthy gumline are typically good candidates for any of the three options. However, those with weakened bones or gum disease may need additional treatments prior to proceeding with an implant.

Our advanced technology and expert team ensure that whether you need a crown, bridge, or implant, your treatment will be handled with the utmost care. Our comprehensive dental services are designed to meet all your needs under one roof, ensuring comfort and convenience throughout your treatment journey.

With our New Patient Offer for just £50 and children’s fees starting from only £10, the whole family can receive high quality dental care and experience the Lion House difference.

Our caring team is ready to guide you toward the best choices for a healthier, more confident smile.
