Ceramic Restorations
Ceramic restorations in Brandon FL include bridges and crowns for restorative treatment and veneers for cosmetic dentistry procedures. Patients prefer restorations made with ceramic because they match the shade of the rest of their teeth and blend in seamlessly. According to the American Dental Association, 90 percent of restorations manufactured today contain primarily ceramic materials.
Benefits of Ceramic Dental Restorations
Unlike their metal counterparts, ceramic dental restorations mimic the color, shade, and translucency of natural teeth. Most people cannot tell that you have had dental work performed at all unless you choose to share that with them.
Most dentists, including Dr. Anderson, prefer to work with ceramic materials when placing a crown, bridge, or veneer because it is easier to shape and position the restoration. Ceramic is also a durable material, but you do need to be careful not to subject your restoration to unnecessary stress like chewing on non-food objects. With appropriate caution and a good oral healthcare routine at home, ceramic dental restorations typically last at least 10 years.
