Crowns and Bridges
Crown
A crown or a ‘cap’ is a dental restoration that covers the entire tooth. Crowns are often recommended for teeth that are heavily broken down or at high risk for substantial fracture. Crowns can be made of a variety of materials and are typically tooth color or metal. Treatment is usually completed in two appointments.
Bridge
A bridge is an option to replace a missing tooth or teeth. A bridge incorporates two crowns on either side of a gap and is permanently cemented in place. A bridge is a good option to replace one or multiple teeth.
