The tooth crown is constructed of a special type of <a href=\"http:\/\/sapteeth.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tooth-<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/sapteeth.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">colored<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/sapteeth.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> material<\/a>, such as gold or porcelain; the color of the crown will vary depending on your aesthetic preferences. A dental crown is placed on top of the visible part of the tooth, which is called the \u2018coronoid process\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/bigstock-153429059-900x900.jpg\" alt=\"dental disease\" class=\"wp-image-20126\" style=\"width:484px;height:484px\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A dental crown can be used for a number of purposes, such as to protect a tooth that has had root canal therapy or if there is not enough tooth structure remaining to support a filling. <a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/cosmetic-dentistry\/\">Dental crowns<\/a> are also used to repair teeth that have sustained severe damage, such as from trauma or tooth decay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-what-is-a-dental-implant\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is a Dental Implant?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A dental implant is a dental treatment that involves placing a metal post into the jawbone, which acts as an anchor for a false tooth or teeth. Dental implants are specially designed to fuse with the jawbone and may last a lifetime. The dental implants themselves come in two parts. The metal post and a resin or metal shell in which the tooth will be fitted. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"485\" height=\"485\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Sure-implant-with-Peek-TPA.png.webp\" alt=\"PEEK Dental Implant\" class=\"wp-image-19303\" style=\"width:209px;height:auto\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/dental-implant\/\">Dental implants<\/a> are very successful, with over 95% of new implants remaining in place after 5 years. They can be used in place of single crowns, bridges, or complete dentures. They are particularly useful in situations where there is not enough tooth remaining to support a crown, or when fixed bridgework is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-what-is-a-dental-bridge\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is a Dental Bridge?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A dental bridge is used to replace one or several missing teeth by placing a false tooth or teeth on either side of the gap. A dental bridge is designed to look as natural as possible and be worn as though it was your own teeth. They maintain your appearance and ability to speak and eat. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"528\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image-10.png\" alt=\"Prosthodontics dental crowns and bridges\" class=\"wp-image-21430\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.4538258575197889;width:318px;height:auto\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A bridge is made by taking an impression of the surrounding teeth and using this to create a bridge, which is then bonded or cemented onto the teeth on either side of the gap. A fixed dental bridge will not be removable and must be removed by a dentist. Whereas a removable dental bridge can be taken out at any time. A dental bridge can be made of many different materials, such as metal, porcelain, or a combination of the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-what-is-a-denture\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is a Denture?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <a href=\"http:\/\/fixdenture.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">denture<\/a> is a removable dental restoration that is used when teeth are missing. Dentures can be made of a variety of materials, including acrylic, metal, and a combination of both. While dentures can look very natural, they may not be a suitable treatment. This is because they will need to be replaced regularly as they may be worn out over time. Or they may not be a suitable option for individuals who have difficulty cleaning them. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Complete-Dentures-900x900.jpg\" alt=\"Dental Implants vs Dentures\" class=\"wp-image-9193\" style=\"width:270px;height:auto\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Complete Dentures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dentures are usually made after all remaining teeth have been extracted and the gums have healed. A denture is usually attached to existing natural teeth or implants, or a bridge is used as a base. While dentures can be a suitable treatment, they may not be an appropriate option for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-other-restorative-dental-procedures\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Other Restorative Dental Procedures<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/root-canal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Root canal treatment<\/a>:<\/strong> This is a treatment for the pulp of a tooth that has become infected.
