Dental Crown in West Allis

dental crown milwaukeeDamaged or missing teeth do more than ruin the look of your smile. They affect your oral health, comfort, and confidence. At Urgent Dental Care in West Allis, WI, we understand the importance of a fully functional smile and craft high-quality, custom dental crowns and bridges designed to restore the beauty and integrity of your teeth.

Understanding Dental Crowns in Milwaukee: A Custom Solution

A dental crown is a custom-crafted cap that completely covers a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its strength and function. Everyone's needs are unique, but here are some of the reasons our dentists might recommend a crown:

  • Stabilize a cracked or broken tooth
  • Protect a tooth weakened by a large filling
  • Restore a tooth that's too decayed for a filling
  • Strengthen a tooth after root canal treatment
  • Enhance a misshapen or severely discolored tooth

Our experienced West Allis dentists at Urgent Dental Care near Milwaukee will start by listening to your concerns and conducting a thorough evaluation. This process will include a visual exam and x-rays to determine the extent of the problem and if a crown is the right solution for you. If so, they will discuss a treatment plan to help you understand what to expect and restore your smile. 

Dental Bridges: Bridging the Gap

A dental bridge is an excellent solution for replacing one or two missing teeth in the same location in your mouth. The bridge spans the space where teeth are absent, placing an artificial tooth called a pontic in the open space. 

If you are not a candidate for a dental implant or want to avoid a long waiting period, a bridge might be the perfect solution for you.
