Broken Crowns & Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges are strong restorations that safeguard damaged teeth and bring back their function. A fractured crown or bridge can cause pain, make chewing difficult, and increase the likelihood of damaging the tooth underneath.

Some common indicators are pain when chewing, being sensitive to changes in temperature, seeing cracks, or feeling like a crown or bridge is loose or out of place. If you don't pay attention to these signs, you could have an infection, hurt your gums, or damage your teeth even more.

To avoid problems, you should stay away from excessively hard or sticky meals, wear a mouthguard when you play sports or grind your teeth, and keep your mouth clean.

Taking care of broken crowns or bridges right away will keep your teeth healthy for a long time and avoid problems.
