Dental crowns and bridges are common restorative dental treatments used to repair damaged teeth and replace missing ones. These treatments are designed to restore the strength, function, and appearance of your smile while protecting your natural teeth from further damage.
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers and protects a damaged or weakened tooth. Crowns help restore the tooth’s shape, size, and strength while improving its appearance. Dental bridges, on the other hand, are used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth to the neighboring natural teeth or dental implants.
Dental bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth. A bridge consists of an artificial tooth (or teeth) supported by crowns placed on the adjacent teeth.
This treatment helps fill the gap left by missing teeth and restores normal chewing and speaking ability. Dental bridges also prevent surrounding teeth from shifting into the empty space, which could affect bite alignment.
Both crowns and bridges are designed to blend naturally with your existing teeth, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution.
