What Are Dental Crowns and Bridges?
Dental crowns and bridges are restorative treatments that help restore the appearance and function of damaged or missing teeth.
What is Crown?
A dental crown is a cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth. It is designed to restore the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance.
Why Would You Need a Dental Crown?

- To restore a broken or cracked tooth.
- To protect a weak tooth from breaking.
- For cosmetic reasons, to cover a discoloured or misshapen tooth.
- To hold a dental bridge in place.
- After root canal treatment to protect the treated tooth.
What is Dental Bridge?
