Crowns are full-coverage restorations that are used to cover a tooth that is likely to break or is too damaged to be fixed with a traditional filling. When a tooth is weak, cracked, or has a large cavity, a crown can protect it and restore its shape, size, and function. Crowns are made to look like your natural teeth, so they blend in perfectly with your smile.

Dental bridges are a related treatment used to replace one or more missing teeth. A bridge fills the gap left by a missing tooth, helping to restore your bite and keep your other teeth from shifting out of place. A typical bridge consists of two crowns that are attached to healthy teeth on either side of the gap. These crowns support an artificial tooth, or teeth, in the middle.

Both crowns and bridges are important for maintaining a healthy and functional smile. They not only improve the appearance of your teeth but also help with chewing and speaking properly.
