Crowns and bridges are restorative options a dentist may discuss for damaged or missing teeth. At Care Speciality Dental Clinic, Dr. Deepa Anil (BDS, Resident Dental Surgeon) can assess your dental needs and explain whether a crown, bridge or another option may be suitable.
Understanding crowns and bridges
A crown covers a tooth, while a bridge is one option for replacing a missing tooth by joining a replacement tooth to supporting teeth. The appropriate option depends on the condition of your teeth and gums, your bite and your goals.
