What are crowns and bridges?

Crowns and bridges are fixed prosthetic devices. Unlike dentures, crowns and bridges are secured onto existing teeth or implants. A crown, sometimes called a cap, covers a damaged tooth. A crown can strengthen the tooth and improve its shape, appearance, or alignment. We may recommend a bridge to fill the space between one or more missing teeth. Bridges are cemented to your natural teeth or implants. These teeth are called abutments and function as anchors for the bridge. Porcelain or ceramic crowns and bridges match the color of your natural teeth for a seamless smile.

What are the advantages of crowns and bridges?

Crowns and bridges protect damaged teeth or replace missing teeth, restoring your smile's natural appearance and function. Depending on your needs, they can replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even an entire row. Crowns and bridges also help maintain the alignment and strength of adjacent teeth and prevent further damage due to decay or an uneven bite. With proper care, crowns and bridges can last up to ten years or more.

Who is a good candidate for crowns and bridges?

Crowns and bridges can be good options for anyone looking to restore their smile, protect weakened teeth, or fill spaces left by missing teeth. They can improve your appearance as well as your oral health.
