Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental restorations rebuild damaged teeth or replace missing ones. Options include crowns that cover teeth requiring support, bridges that replace selected gaps, and removable dentures for suitable cases of tooth loss. The choice depends on how many teeth are affected, the condition of the mouth, and the patient’s needs.
At Dr. Ahmed Elwan’s Clinic, planning starts with an assessment of the remaining teeth, gums, and bite, including the ability of supporting teeth or other abutments to carry the restoration. Once an option is selected, the necessary records are taken, and the restoration is designed for shade, shape, and fit. The bite and access for cleaning are checked before treatment is completed.
Restorations aim to improve chewing and appearance and may also support speech in some cases of tooth loss. An adjustment period may be needed, together with daily care suited to the restoration. Follow-up visits assess stability, surrounding tissue health, and any adjustments required for comfort and function.
