What is a dental crown?
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a damaged or decayed tooth. Crowns are used to restore the shape, strength, and appearance of a weakened tooth. When you get a crown, your dentist will first reduce the size of your original tooth to make room for the crown and then place it on the tooth.
What is a dental bridge?
A dental bridge is a false tooth, known as a pontic, that is held in place by two crowns on either side of the missing tooth (or teeth). This “bridge” structure will replace your missing teeth and provide strength and stability to your mouth. Dental bridges are also used to enhance your smile and prevent teeth from shifting.
What oral health benefits do these services provide?
There are many! This treatment can help restore the appearance of your smile, improve the function of your bite, and prevent shifting in the teeth that surround an extraction site. Teeth that are covered with dental crowns can also benefit from having a strong layer of protection to protect them from plaque and decay.
Who is a candidate for these restorations?
Dental crowns and bridges can be a great option for people who have suffered from tooth decay, trauma, or are missing teeth. If you have crooked teeth, gaps between your teeth, or discolored teeth that cannot be fixed with simple whitening treatments, dental crowns and bridges may be able to help restore your smile.
