What are crowns and bridges?

A crown or cap is a dental restoration that covers the exposed surface of a tooth to strengthen it or improve its appearance. A bridge is a dental restoration to replace one or more missing teeth. It includes an artificial tooth or teeth which are fused to crowns on either side to provide support.

How long do bridges and crowns last?

That being said, with proper oral hygiene, a bridge should last well over ten years for more patients. Like any dental work, your bridges and crowns will experience natural wear and tear from chewing food and grinding teeth. These are the primary reasons for replacing restorative dental work.

Which is better dental crown or bridge?

We generally recommend bridges when you lose one or more tooth in its entirety. In contrast, we usually recommend a dental crown for one of the following reasons: Restoring a cracked or fractured tooth. Replacing a large filling.

How Long Does It Take To Complete a Dental Crown?

Most dental crown procedures require two appointments. At your first visit, our team will assess the shape and condition of the tooth and take impressions of your teeth to create a custom-fit crown. We also note the colour of your natural teeth so we can colour-match the crown for a seamless fit. During your second appointment, we place the crown on the existing tooth and ensure it fits optimally before cementing it in place. It’s a nearly pain-free procedure that doesn’t require lengthy recovery periods.
