Fixed Teeth Caping

Capping and fixed teeth procedures are routine dental treatments that can significantly improve oral health, restore functionality, and enhance the smile’s appearance. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene practices are essential for maintaining the longevity and effectiveness of fixed teeth.
Fixed teeth, also known as dental crowns or caps, are prosthetic devices that are cemented onto existing teeth or implants by a dentist or prosthodontist. They serve various purposes, including:

Restoring Functionality: Teeth that are severely decayed, cracked, weakened, or misshapen can be restored with fixed teeth. By covering the entire visible portion of the tooth, fixed teeth restore its strength, allowing for proper chewing and biting.

Protection: Fixed teeth act as a protective shield for weakened or damaged teeth. They prevent further deterioration and fracture, preserving the natural tooth structure underneath.

Aesthetics: Fixed teeth can improve the appearance of damaged or discolored teeth, enhancing the overall smile and facial aesthetics. They are often made from materials like porcelain or ceramic, which closely mimic the appearance of natural teeth.

Support for Dental Bridges: Fixed teeth can also serve as abutments for dental bridges. A dental bridge is a restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth (pontics) to adjacent natural teeth or implants using fixed teeth as support.
