A dental crown, also known as a cap, is a type of dental restoration that covers the entire visible portion of a damaged or decayed tooth. It is typically used to strengthen a weak tooth, protect a cracked tooth, or restore a tooth that has been severely damaged by decay.

A dental bridge is a dental restoration that is used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of one or more artificial teeth, called pontics, that are anchored to the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Bridges can be used to restore your ability to chew and speak properly, improve your bite, and prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of position.
