Crowns Vs. Bridges: What to Know
Crowns and bridges serve a similar purpose, but they are not interchangeable. Patients are often unsure which option will work best for their particular condition. Our team is dedicated to educating our patients about all the possible treatments for gapped and missing teeth. Here's a quick rundown of the difference between crowns and bridges:
- Dental Crowns—These restorations are used to cover a damaged tooth without needing to extract it. Your dentist will use tooth-colored material to create a cap for the damaged tooth and make it look good as new.
- Dental Bridges—While crowns cover a damaged tooth without removing it, bridges replace missing teeth. Dental bridges are especially useful if you have several missing teeth in a row. This restoration anchors replacement teeth to natural teeth, creating a beautiful, complete smile.
