Crowns are beautiful life-like tooth restorations that have ideal contours and shape. They form a protective cap that goes over top of a broken tooth to build it back up. When too much of a tooth fractures or breaks, crowns can be made by a lab to help make the outside of the tooth strong and protect it from further damage.
Bridges are like crowns but are usually three crowns connected together to replace and span an area of one or more missing teeth.
