Crown and Bridge
Dental Crowns: A crown is a cap placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength. Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, metal, or a combination. They are often used after a root canal or to support a tooth with a large filling.
Dental Bridges: A bridge is a dental appliance used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of two crowns on either side of the gap and a false tooth (pontic) in between. Bridges help restore your smile and improve your ability to chew and speak.
