Dental Crowns are used to restore teeth. They are shells that look like teeth and cover the damaged teeth completely. Dental crowns solve a number of problems.
Cover a damaged tooth
Support a tooth
Cover a discolored or faulty tooth
Dental bridges, on the other hand, fill in a gap. Generally, dental bridges are applied if the patient has a missing tooth just in the middle of two healthy teeth. They are all joined together into a dental bridge, by using dental crowns.
Typically the process of placing a crown is comprised of several steps and requires several visits to the dentist.
The tooth is cleaned and shaped to fit a crown
The mold of the tooth is taken and sent to the technicians to reproduce it
The custom-made crown is fitted. In case the crown fits, this will be the patient’s last visit.
The crown, if perfectly fitted, will feel natural and be comfortable in the mouth
Crowns and dental bridges are also good, as they support the integrity of the teeth and stop the development issues in the jaw
Bridges cover the gaps completely, and prevent food from trapping in the gaps
Improved appearance of the teeth
Dental crowns are durable and can last for years, especially when are well cared for
