A tooth can lose its normal shape and size for a variety of reasons. A crown covers your tooth to help restore its original shape and size. Crowns can also be used to make teeth stronger and look better. Meanwhile, bridges, as the name suggests, helps to fill gaps in your teeth.
Crowns have a variety of uses. In some cases that require a large filling, there isn’t enough tooth structure remaining to keep the filling in place. A crown can strengthen the tooth and hold the filling. Crowns can also protect teeth that are weak, or help fix ones that are broken. Discolored or misshaped teeth can be covered by a crown, as can dental implants.
