A crown is a custom cap that fully covers a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its strength, shape, and appearance. A bridge uses crowns on neighboring teeth to anchor a replacement for one or more missing teeth in between.
Both are designed to blend naturally with your smile while restoring full biting and chewing function.
When you might need this
- A tooth weakened by a large filling or root canal treatment
- A cracked or fractured tooth
- One or more missing teeth with healthy teeth on either side
- A tooth that's worn down significantly
- You want to restore both function and appearance together
