A “crown” or “dental crown” is a cap that covers a broken, damaged or reshaped tooth. When a tooth is misshapen, regardless of how or why, once workable treatment is to use a crown. It provides protection and because it is fixed in place, offers a long-term solution.
Crowns are a great for many different situations and their versatility can help you restore your original look and feel.
Essentially, bridges are used to fill a gap in teeth. Dental bridges are typically composed of fake teeth and fixed in place on either side of a missing tooth or teeth.
Bridges can be used to help restore your smile – especially when you are missing teeth, but can also help your remaining teeth from moving.
Have you had a cavity or dental procedure that left part of your tooth missing? Do you have a cracked or chipped tooth? If so, crowns may be a good option for you.
If you are missing one or several teeth, a porcelain bridge may be a perfect solution, to have a fixed, matching set of new teeth.
