Crowns :
Crowns, also known as caps, restore it to its normal shape, size and function. Its purpose is to strengthen or improve the appearance of a tooth. Crowns are indicated for cracked teeth and teeth with deep cavities; to protect teeth that have been filled by root-canal treatment; to provide extra support for bridges; and to cover poorly shaped or discolored teeth. Crowns fix and protect teeth that are so damaged as they need more support than a simple filling.
Bridges replace missing teeth and offer support for the surrounding teeth to help retain the integrity of the jaw and face structure.

Bridges:
A bridge is a dental re-establishment that ‘bridges’ the space where one or more teeth have been lost. Bridges prevent the surrounding teeth from moving or shifting in the mouth.
Bridge can be supported in many ways: 1. Through natural teeth
2. Through implants
3. Through a combination of natural teeth and implants
Unlike partial dentures, bridges are permanent; patients need not remove them.
The missing tooth is replaced with an artificial tooth connected between two crowns (caps), which are permanently cemented or bonded on the adjacent teeth.
