Crowns and Bridges Bring Function and Beauty Back to Your Smile

If you have one or more missing teeth, you may be wondering what your options are for restoring your smile. Many people who prefer more permanent solutions are directed to crowns and bridges due to their durability and aesthetic appeal. Your family dentistry, Auburn Dental Aesthetics, in Auburn, CA, can gan get you the best restoration based on your specific needs.

The Difference Between Crowns and Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges are both synthetic options for replacing lost or missing teeth. Crowns are caps that cover a damaged tooth and mimic the look and function of a natural tooth. they can fix or hide a variety of dental imperfections.

Bridges use dental crowns to fill gaps in your smile by "bridging" false teeth in the empty space. In Auburn, CA, your experts in family dentistry use two crowns adhered to existing teeth on either side of a gap to hold up the replacement tooth. Bridges are permanently affixed in the mouth. 

Advantages of Crowns and Bridges

Regardless of which is right for you, both crowns and bridges have significant advantages for restoring the function and beauty of your smile. Since they are not removable, like dentures, crowns and bridges are durable and can withstand normal eating and drinking without shifting around in the mouth. This durability can also add to their realistic appearance, as they should blend in seamlessly with your existing teeth in both look and function. By adding crowns or bridges to their smile, many people experience increased confidence and are no longer embarrassed when interacting and eating out with others.
