Both crowns and bridges are used in restorative dentistry. They are used to return your teeth to a state of structural integrity and your smile to its desired look and maintain your jaw’s physiologic health and strength. A single tooth crown is used when a tooth is damaged. A bridge is used when more than one tooth is missing. Crowns and bridges both add stability to the surrounding teeth, and give your smile a more beautiful look. If you have any questions, contact Delany Dental Care in Gurnee, Illinois for an initial consultation.
