What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is an individual cap that covers and protects a tooth that has turned weak due to decay, damage, or extensive dental work. It not only restores the full function of the tooth but also its appearance, as it blends extremely well with the rest of your teeth. A crown may be required for the following incidents:
- A large filling
- Root canal treatment
- A fractured or worn-down tooth
- Severe discoloration or misshaping
- Placement of a dental implant
Crowns are made from high-quality materials such as porcelain, ceramic, zirconia, metal alloys, or a combination selected based on your individual needs and preferences for durability and appearance.
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that is applied to one or more missing teeth’ gap. It consists of one or more artificial teeth, called pontics, which are held by the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants.
In addition to the function and cosmetic appearance, bridges also aid in blocking the movement of the adjacent teeth thereby keeping the alignment of your bite intact.
Types of Dental Bridges:
- Traditional Bridge – It is held up by crowns on either side of the gap.
- Cantilever Bridge – It is supported on the one side only by a crown.
- Maryland Bridge – With a metal or porcelain framework, it is bonded.
- Implant-Supported Bridge – The dental implants hold it up directly for increased durability and lifetime.

Why You Might Need a Crown or Bridge
Crowns and bridges are not just for looks; they actually play a significant role in dental health restoration and bite preservation. If you find yourself in any of the following situations, your dentist might suggest one of these treatments:
- A tooth that is cracked, broken, or not strong enough for regular use
- Infected tooth with decay coming through or old filling giving way
- A tooth after root canal therapy that is up for protection from decay
- A patient or patients with one or more teeth missing
- Social acceptance through corrected looks of a strangely shaped or very discolored tooth
- That you are looking for a permanent, fixed solution to the problem of removable dentures.
