Overview
A crown is a protective cover that fits over a broken or decayed tooth. It's stronger than a filling and can improve how the tooth looks. A bridge fills the gap left by a missing tooth, held in place by the teeth on either side, which stops neighbouring teeth leaning into the space and changing your bite.
