Proper care is important for extending the life of your restorations. Just follow the brushing and flossing routine that we will recommend for you. The tooth below your crown and the adjacent teeth can decay but not the dental crowns or dental bridges. Additionally, a buildup of plaque and tartar can lead to bad breath. Eventually, periodontal disease can occur.
Along with practicing good home health-care habits, regular dental cleanings and examinations are necessary. At your appointment, we’ll check the condition of your restoration to make sure that it’s still in good shape.
While your restorations are designed to be durable, they can break if they are placed under too much pressure – just like your own natural teeth. If you happen to break a crown or a bridge, call our office immediately so that we can quickly repair the damage.
