At My Daytona Dental, we’re committed to restoring the function, strength, and beauty of your smile using high-quality, long-lasting solutions. Dental crowns and bridges are two of the most trusted and effective ways to repair damaged teeth or replace missing ones—helping you chew comfortably, speak clearly, and smile confidently.
Dental Crowns
A dental crown—sometimes called a “cap”—is used to fully cover a tooth that is cracked, broken, worn down, or severely decayed. It restores the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance, while also protecting it from further damage. Crowns are also used after root canal treatment or to top a dental implant, providing a realistic, functional replacement for a missing tooth.
At My Daytona Dental, we offer a variety of crown materials to suit your unique needs. Porcelain or ceramic crowns are incredibly popular because they can be closely matched to the color of your natural teeth, making them an ideal choice for front teeth. For added durability—especially for molars—we also offer metal alloys, zirconia, gold, or combinations like porcelain-fused-to-metal, which provide extra strength for biting and chewing.
A Faster, Smarter Approach to Crowns
Unlike most dental offices where getting a crown requires two separate appointments (with weeks in between), our office offers same-day crowns using state-of-the-art technology. With our advanced digital system, here’s what you can expect:
-
Digital Precision – Instead of messy traditional impressions, we capture a highly accurate 3D digital impression of your tooth.
-
Custom Design – Dr. Patel designs your permanent crown right in the office, ensuring a perfect fit and natural look.
-
On-Site Fabrication – Using our cutting-edge milling machine, your crown is crafted in about 30 minutes while you relax.
-
Same-Day Placement – Your permanent crown is bonded in place during that same visit—no need for a temporary crown or a second appointment.
This streamlined process not only saves you time but also provides superior accuracy and comfort. You’ll walk out with a fully restored smile in just one visit.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to fill the gap left by one or more missing teeth. Gaps from missing teeth can lead to shifting of neighboring teeth, bite issues, and even bone loss over time. A bridge “bridges the gap” using one or more artificial teeth (called pontics) that are securely anchored to adjacent natural teeth or implants (called abutments).
Much like crowns, bridges can be made from porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys, and are designed to look natural and restore full dental function. We carefully match the shape, color, and contour of the pontics to the surrounding teeth, ensuring your smile looks and feels complete.
Getting a dental bridge typically involves preparing the abutment teeth for crowns, taking impressions, and fitting a temporary restoration while your permanent bridge is crafted. Once placed, your new bridge can last for many years with proper care.
Whether you need to repair a damaged tooth or replace one that’s missing, crowns and bridges offer dependable, natural-looking solutions that restore both form and function. At My Daytona Dental, we combine advanced techniques—including same-day crown technology—with personalized care to deliver results that truly make you smile.
