Crowns,
or caps for teeth, look and function just like natural teeth. Your
dentist may recommend a crown if your tooth has enough decay that it
cannot hold a filling, or if your tooth is cracked or broken and in
danger of cracking down into the root if left unattended. A crown covers
your tooth completely. It fits snugly at the gum and protects what
remains of the natural tooth.
A bridge may
be utilized to replace one or more teeth. These restorations are cemented
onto the teeth and are referred to as "fixed" dentistry as opposed to a
restoration of missing teeth with a removable appliance or partial
denture.
