Crowns and bridges are both fixed prosthetic devices that are cemented with permanent cement onto existing teeth and/or implants.

 

Crowns are commonly used to cover a weak or damaged tooth or to cover an implant. 

​

Bridges, however,  are commonly used if you’re missing one or more teeth. They cover the space where the teeth are missing and are cemented to natural teeth or implants surrounding the space.

​

Crowns and Bridges are generally recommended by your Dentist to:

​

• Replace large fillings and missing teeth

• Protect a weak tooth from fracturing

• Cover a dental implant

• Cover a discolored or poorly shaped tooth

• Cover/Protect a tooth that has had root canal treatment
