Crown or cap is the full and permanent coverage of the tooth by porcelain, gold or metal.
Indications for the crown are:
- Damage or fracture to the tooth due to decay or trauma.
- To protect the weak tooth structure such as large fillings.
- To cover a root canal tooth.
- To cover a dental implant.
- To cover a discolored or misaligned tooth.
Bridges are made to cover one or multiple missing teeth.
How crowns and bridges are made:
First, the dentist shapes the tooth properly. In the past, the patient had to come back for a second visit to get the crown cemented. However, new technology called CAD/CAM by CEREC has made it possible to fabricate the crown in the office and deliver the crown at the same appointment, thereby, eliminating the second visit.
