What are Dental Crowns & Bridges?

A dental bridge replaces missing teeth by connecting multiple crowns, including a floating crown in the gap. It’s a fixed prosthesis which requires the preparation of adjoining teeth. If those teeth are already compromised, a bridge is possible. Otherwise, a dental implant is suitable to preserve healthy tooth structure. Dental crowns are like thimbles which protect and improve damaged teeth. It has 3 types full-gold, porcelain-fused-to-metal, and full ceramic.

How do dental crowns and bridges work?

Dental crowns and bridges help treat tooth decay and misalignment. Crowns cover damaged teeth to provide protection and improve appearance. Bridges replace missing teeth with the help of connected crowns which include a pontic in the gap. Both are fixed prosthetics and permanently placed to enhance oral function. Crowns come in multiple types and each type has a different function and durability. Understanding their function and types helps patients make the right decisions about dental restoration.

Dental Bridges vs Implants

When considering tooth replacement, patients have two options: dental bridges against dental implants. Dental bridges use false teeth which are attached to adjacent healthy teeth, while dental implants fuse with the jawbone for stability. Each option has its own benefits. However, the benefits are based on factors like the number of missing teeth, surrounding tooth health, and patients’ budget. Dental bridges are usually more affordable and quicker to complete. Contrarily, dental implants are a long-lasting option and can help prevent jawbone loss. Choosing between implants and bridges based on patient oral health needs and preferences At Cove Dental and Implant Clinic we guarantee optimal oral health and satisfaction with your chosen treatment method. Moreover, consulting with our dentist can help you get personalised guidance and make the right decision which is best suitable for your dental needs and financial concerns.
