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. A bridge case usually needs a few appointments given the precision required for both anchor teeth and the gap.
Treatment order matters here — a crown placed over an unresolved cavity or unhealthy gumline won't hold up as well long-term. That's why a full exam and any necessary cleanup happens before impressions are taken for the final restoration.
Select offices design and mill a crown in one visit with in-office CAD/CAM equipment. Not every office has the equipment, so ask specifically when you call if a single visit matters to you.
Zirconia and porcelain prioritize appearance; metal prioritizes durability for back molars. 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. Getting the fit right the first time avoids a return trip for adjustments.
A non-surgical route for replacing missing teeth when anchor teeth are strong enough. Whether your anchor teeth qualify is assessed before a bridge is recommended over an implant.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.

Chosen for visible teeth where appearance is the priority.

The specialist examines your case, often with same-visit imaging, and gives you a cost estimate before starting anything.
Treatment proceeds on the agreed plan, with aftercare instructions and a follow-up if the case calls for one.
"Explained every step and the cost before doing anything. First visit that didn't feel rushed."
"Didn't have to wait weeks like my old dentist. Got routed straight to a specialist who knew what to do."
"No upsells, no pressure. Just the treatment I needed at the price I was told upfront."
Lifespan depends on material and bite habits, but a decade or more is typical.
Ask when you call — not every office offers it, but many do.
A crown caps a single damaged tooth; a bridge replaces missing teeth using neighboring anchors.
If anchor teeth aren't strong enough, an implant-supported option may be suggested instead.
Digital scans and shade guides help the restoration blend in rather than stand out.
