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.
Some offices can design and mill a crown in a single visit using in-office equipment, cutting the traditional two-visit process down. Bridges typically still span two to three visits: preparing anchor teeth, taking impressions, and fitting the final piece.
Treatment order matters here — a crown placed over an unresolved cavity or unhealthy gumline won't hold up as well long-term. Getting the foundation healthy first is what makes the final crown or bridge actually last.
Skip the temporary-crown wait at participating locations. We'll tell you upfront whether the office you're matched with offers same-day milling.
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. A poorly fitted crown causes bite problems down the line, which is why the scan step isn't skipped.
Traditional bridges use your existing healthy teeth as anchors, avoiding implant surgery when appropriate. Not every case is a fit for a bridge, and that gets flagged honestly at the consult.
Whatever the specifics of your case, the specialist we route you to has handled it before.
