A crown caps a damaged tooth entirely when a filling alone can't hold it together. A bridge, instead, replaces missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth to the crowns on either side of the gap. Both are custom-made to match your bite and the shade of surrounding teeth.
At select locations, same-day crown technology skips the temporary-crown wait entirely. Bridges typically still span two to three visits: preparing anchor teeth, taking impressions, and fitting the final piece.
A crown or bridge is only as durable as the tooth structure and gum health supporting it, so underlying decay or gum disease gets addressed first. Getting the foundation healthy first is what makes the final crown or bridge actually last.
Select offices design and mill a crown in one visit with in-office CAD/CAM equipment. We'll tell you upfront whether the office you're matched with offers same-day milling.
Material is chosen based on tooth location, bite force, and cosmetic priority. Your provider will recommend a material rather than leaving you to guess between options.
Shade matching ensures the crown or bridge blends with surrounding teeth. A poorly fitted crown causes bite problems down the line, which is why the scan step isn't skipped.
A non-surgical route for replacing missing teeth when anchor teeth are strong enough. Not every case is a fit for a bridge, and that gets flagged honestly at the consult.
