What is Crowns & Bridges Treatment?

Crowns and bridges are dental solutions used to repair or replace damaged or missing teeth. It’s one of the most effective permanent tooth restoration solutions for long-term function and aesthetics.
  • A crown acts like a cap placed over a weak or broken tooth to restore its shape and strength.
  • A bridge fills the gap created by missing teeth using support from nearby teeth.
