At Healthy Smiles of Georgia, we provide dental crowns and bridges for patients throughout the 30004 area. These procedures are extremely effective for restoring a tooth that has become infected, damaged or has fallen out. Dr. Jai is an expert at completing these procedures in a way that looks natural while resolving oral health issues. This way a patient can regain the functionality of their tooth without looking like dental work was ever completed. If you live in Roswell, GA call (678) 762-0690 to schedule your appointment so that you can learn more about dental crowns and dental bridges.
A dental crown is a cap that surrounds the tooth. Dr. Jai will typically use a crown to restore a tooth that has been damaged, but they can also be used for cosmetic purposes in order to improve the appearance of a smile.
A crown can be made in three different materials, all-metal, ceramic-on-metal, and all-ceramic. Where the crown is located will determine the best material to use. For example, front teeth should have an all-ceramic crown, if possible, since it looks the most natural. Patients throughout Georgia will often use ceramic-on-metal crowns since they look natural but have the durability that only metal can provide.
A dental bridge is a way to replace a missing tooth. At Healthy Smiles of Georgia, we provide clients with dental bridges if they want to replace a tooth without wearing dentures or undergoing surgery. The new tooth is held in place by two crowns. It looks natural and is made out of a ceramic or porcelain material to match the surrounding teeth. As an experienced cosmetic dentist, Dr. Jai makes sure that the new tooth looks and feels amazing. This is a popular option for patients throughout the 30004 area.
If you are getting dental crowns or a dental bridge for cosmetic reasons, we recommend that you whiten your teeth first. At Healthy Smiles of Georgia, we offer teeth whitening procedures that can improve the appearance of your smile quickly and easily. It is important to have this procedure done first because the material that crowns and bridges are made out of are both stain and bleach resistant. That means that if it is created to match yellow teeth, it will remain yellow even if you have your teeth whitened at a later date. When you have the procedure done first, your new crown or bridge will be made to match your new brilliantly white teeth.
When preparing for the procedure, we recommend that patients throughout Georgia take a day off of work. If possible, you may want to take a couple of days off. It is normal for teeth to be somewhat sensitive, and it is easier if you don’t have to worry about meeting clients and keeping up with your busy schedule.
When getting dental crowns and dental bridges installed, it is advisable that you work with an experienced cosmetic dentist that knows how to complete the procedure in a way that looks natural. At Healthy Smiles of Georgia, we can do so while also keeping our patients completely comfortable by using sedation dentistry. The process for both procedures is fairly similar. Before getting started, an impression is taken of the teeth so that the new crown or bridge can be created in a dental lab.
When placing a dental crown around a tooth, Healthy Smiles of Georgia starts by preparing the tooth. A portion of the enamel needs to be removed so that there is room for the new crown to surround the tooth without pushing other teeth out of place. Once this is done, the tooth is cleaned a temporary crown is secured to it using removable glue. Patients typically wear a temporary crown for around two weeks while waiting for a permanent one to be created in the lab. During this time, it is important to be careful with what you eat and how you brush your teeth since the temporary is designed to come off.
When the dental Restoratives are done being created by the lab, patients come back to our Roswell dentist office, so that the temporaries can be removed and the permanent ones bonded to the tooth. When getting a crown, this cap is secured around the tooth and once bonded in place the procedure is complete. With a bridge, a crown is placed on the two teeth that are surrounding the missing one. On top of the crown is a piece that looks like natural gums that holds the new tooth in place. These two crowns serve as anchors for this synthetic “bridge” and makes a new tooth as durable as it can be. Patients throughout the 30004 area depend on this procedure as a way to replace missing teeth in a way that looks natural and restores the functionality of the missing tooth.

When getting dental Restoratives, your teeth will be somewhat sensitive after they have been prepared. This is why you need to wear a temporary crown while waiting for a permanent one to be created. We use sedation dentistry to ensure that you won’t experience any discomfort during the procedure and after the fact you simply need to take some oral pain medication for a couple of days until you feel better.
The benefit of wearing a crown is that it surrounds and protects the tooth. This means that regardless of how damaged the tooth was, you can eat your favorite foods without fear of discomfort. A crown can restore the functionality of your mouth by making it easy to eat, drink and speak like normal. This is ideal for people that are suffering from severely sensitive teeth, have a cracked or chipped tooth or have undergone a root canal. Similarly, a bridge makes it possible to eat and speak like normal without worrying about your new tooth becoming loose or falling out. They are both ideal for people that have active lifestyles and don’t want to be constrained by their teeth. To find out if the procedure is right for you, call 678-762-0690 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Jai and discuss your options. At Healthy Smiles of Georgia, we make it easier for patients throughout Roswell to have a beautiful and functional smile.
Trinity steiding2024-03-27Dr. Jai is so wonderful as are all of his assistants and receptionists. They always encourage me to let them know if I have any questions or issues during the cleanings. I have what’s called ‘groovy’ teeth so getting cavities was something I knew often. Since coming here I’ve had less to no issues with my teeth and always come out sparkly clean. Healthy Smiles of Georgia really cares about the patient/ client and I recommend you come here :)!
Christian Smith2024-03-15Dr. Jai and his whole team were very friendly and professional. This office is also completely transparent with the cost of services. The best tooth care experience I have had in my life. A big thank you to the whole team!
Shivangi Patel2024-03-13I had started having pain in my right wisdom tooth. I thought it would go away with time & waited for about a week, but on Saturday, when I couldn't tolerate it at all, I made a call to Dr. Jai’s office and got lucky that they saw me on the same day. It came out that I had a cavity on my right side molar. My visits with Dr. Jai & his staff (Victoria & Amisha) were pleasant & satisfying. I would suggest visiting him because he is passionate about his work and serves you best.
