When it comes to restoring damaged or missing teeth, patients often hear about crowns and bridges. While both are important tools in modern dentistry, they serve different purposes. At Smooth Smile Dental Studio, we believe every patient should understand their treatment options clearly.
What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a protective cap placed over a weak, broken, or root-canal treated tooth. It restores the tooth’s shape, strength, and appearance, allowing patients to chew comfortably and smile confidently. Crowns are also used to cover dental implants.
Best for:
- Damaged teeth
- Teeth after root canal treatment
- Cosmetic improvements
What is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth (or teeth) to the natural teeth or implants on either side. This not only fills the gap but also prevents shifting of nearby teeth and improves chewing function.
Best for:
- Missing teeth
- Preventing teeth misalignment
- Restoring natural smile
Key Difference
- A crown protects and restores a single tooth.
- A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by linking to surrounding teeth.
