FAQs

1Are dental crown better than filling?

A crown is substantially more durable for teeth with a large biting surface than a filling. Fillings on the biting surfaces of molars might chip or come free as a result of repeated pressure from chewing or frequent clenching. Because a crown is a single unbroken surface from gumline to gumline, it is engineered to withstand much more stress over time.

2Do dental crown look different than the normal tooth?

In your mouth, dental crowns serve two purposes. To begin with, they fully restore the function of your tooth, allowing you to seal your teeth and chew without pain or discomfort, or having to compensate by biting on one side. Crowns are made to fit in with your natural teeth as a secondary (but equally significant!) feature. That is to say, they are coloured and moulded to fit your style. In fact, it's not uncommon for people to forget which tooth is the crown.

3Do Dental Crown Hurt?

Receiving a crown can feel similar to getting a filling, depending on the quality of your tooth. We take our time to numb the area and then utilise freezing as needed to make the tooth preparation as painless as possible. For a short time after the surgery, you may have some sensitivity or pain in the gums around the tooth. Please let us know if you are afraid of going to the dentist. We'd be delighted to set your concerns at ease and make your visit as pleasant as possible.

4How Do I take care of dental crown?

A dental crown is cared for in the same way that a normal tooth is. Brushing and flossing on a regular basis keeps your dental crown - and the gums that support it - healthy and clean. Regular dental cleanings and examinations are critical to your oral health.

5What is the difference between a dental bridge and a crown?
The terms dental bridge and crown are sometimes used interchangeably. In reality, they serve diverse purposes. Dental crowns are prosthetic caps that are used to cover teeth that have been fractured, chipped, or worn down. They are useful at preventing tooth decay and strengthening teeth. Dental bridges are used to fill gaps left by one or more lost teeth. A dental crown is cared for in the same way that a normal tooth is. Brushing and flossing on a regular basis keeps your dental crown - and the gums that support it - healthy and clean. Regular dental cleanings and examinations are critical to your oral health.
6What are the different types of dental bridges?
Dental bridges come in two varieties: permanent and semi-permanent. Because they are semi-permanent and attached to existing teeth or implants, bridges are sometimes known as fixed partial dentures. The easiest way to distinguish between a bridge (which stays in place) and a denture (which is removable) is that bridges only have teeth, but dentures have pink gums.
7How long does it take to get a dental bridge?
The process usually takes two appointments with each appointment lasting less than an hour.

    As always, I had the best doctor and superb services at Shifa Dental. I never felt the need to go to any other dentist after coming to this place a couple of years ago. Their attention to details is masterful and coupled with the care for their patients they show is truly wonderful. A big thank to all the people at Shifa Dental.
