Crowns & Bridges are customized tooth prosthetics used for tooth repair and replacement. They are not removable and are cemented permanently over the natural tooth structure or dental implant surfaces.
Crowns, or commonly referred to as “caps” are used to restore tooth structure and shape. They can cover a damaged or cracked teeth, restore color, provide strength to root canal treated teeth, restore occlusion and improve tooth wear caused by grinding.
Bridges on the other hand are used to replace missing teeth, by anchoring crowns on either end to “false” replacement teeth. They are a great option for replacing missing teeth when implants are not an option due to bone loss. Contact us today to schedule your prosthetic consultation.
