Understanding Dental Crowns and Bridges

Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-made prosthetic restorations that cover damaged or weakened teeth. They are designed to restore the strength, function, and appearance of the affected tooth while protecting it from further damage or decay. Dental bridges, on the other hand, are used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth (pontics) between two crowns placed on adjacent natural teeth or dental implants.

Types of Crowns and Bridges

There are several types of crowns and bridges available, each offering unique advantages:

  • Porcelain Crowns: These crowns are known for their natural appearance and are an excellent option for front teeth restoration.
  • Ceramic Crowns: Similar to porcelain crowns, ceramic crowns are highly aesthetic and can be matched to the color of your natural teeth.
  • Metal Crowns: These crowns are incredibly durable and are often used for back teeth where strength is paramount.
  • Implant-Supported Bridges: These bridges are anchored in place by dental implants rather than natural teeth, providing stability and preventing bone loss in the jaw.

Causes of Dental Issues Requiring Crowns and Bridges

Several factors can lead to the need for dental crowns and bridges, including:

  • Tooth decay
  • Trauma or injury
  • Wear and tear over time
  • Genetics or developmental abnormalities
