What Are Dental Bridges?
Bridges are oral appliances that are custom made for a patient missing teeth. The bridges designed for you will look like your natural teeth so no one will notice any difference!
Fixed partial dentures are semi-permanent. Your dentist bonds bridges to natural teeth or dental implants. There are several types of fixed partial dentures:
- conventional fixed bridges
- cantilever bridges
- resin-bonded bridges
What Are Dental Crowns?
The main function of a crown is to provide strength for weak teeth or restore the look of imperfect teeth. Crowns are perfect for restoring your teeth because they are made out of a durable material called porcelain. The porcelain crowns fit over the teeth, completely covering them from all sides and adding a protective layer for your smile.
Dental crowns are used in cases such as covering chips, cracks, and discolorations found on teeth, which may be due to injuries when playing sports or poor dental hygiene. Dental crowns are used to strengthen a tooth after invasive procedures like root canals and are placed over fillings that may be loose.
