Dental Crowns & Bridges - North Naples, FL

Renew Your Smile

If you’ve lost teeth due to an accident, injury, or gum disease, we can create a permanent bridge to restore your complete smile. A bridge not only fills the gap, but it also prevents the repositioning of the remaining teeth. It can correct a misaligned bite, improve chewing function and speech articulation, and provide internal structure for the facial muscles to give you a more youthful appearance. We can also create custom dental crowns to repair damaged teeth. Contact Mark Markam, DDS to find out more about dental crowns and bridges in North Naples.

Why Choose Mark Makram DDS for Dental Crowns & Bridges?

Porcelain Dental Crowns

Are you self-conscious about your smile because of one or more cracked, broken, decayed, or worn teeth? We understand. Not only can a cracked, worn, or decayed tooth detract from your appearance, it can also make eating uncomfortable and speaking more difficult. But at Dr. Makram’s dental office in Naples, FL, we can help you restore your smile with custom-made, natural-looking dental crowns.

A crown is an exceptional service for anyone who needs something more advanced than a filling or an inlay/onlay. Crowns are durable and can be used for the long-term with both front and back teeth. They’re made to fit snugly on top of your vulnerable tooth, simultaneously renewing its appearance and structural integrity.

In addition to offering all-porcelain crowns, Dr. Makram also offers gold crowns and crowns made with porcelain-fused-to-metal. The type of crown you’ll receive will depend on a variety of factors. But regardless of which we recommend, we want to provide you with the most durable and natural-looking restoration possible.

During your procedure, Dr. Makram will prepare your tooth, take an impression of your teeth, and put a temporary crown in place while our lab manufactures your final version. When your crown is ready, you’ll simply come back to our dental office to have it fitted.

Fixed Dental Bridges

Dr. Makram also offers fixed bridges to help patients replace missing teeth. A fixed bridge combines one or two crowns with carefully made prosthetic teeth in the middle. Once in place, your fixed bridge will literally bridge the gap left behind by missing teeth, creating a full, healthy smile.

What is a Fixed Bridge?

First of all, a bridge is a prosthetic tooth (or teeth) that attaches on one or both sides to teeth prepared for dental crowns. A fixed bridge is permanently joined onto the neighboring abutment teeth (crowned teeth) and consists of three basic units: the false tooth or teeth (called a pontic) and two abutment crowns. The style of bridge we suggest will depend upon the strength and health the abutment teeth, as well as the location of the gap in relation to the rest of your dentition. If healthy adjacent abutment teeth aren’t available, a surgically-implanted metal post, known as a dental implant, may offer a solid alternative. For a bridge that replaces many teeth, we may recommend a removable partial denture or implant-supported prosthesis.
