How do I know if I need a dental crown or a bridge?

Dental crowns and bridges both restore your smile, but they serve different purposes. A dental crown protects and strengthens a tooth that's damaged, weakened, or has undergone root canal treatment. A bridge, on the other hand, replaces one or more missing teeth by filling the gap with a custom restoration supported by neighboring teeth or dental implants.

During your exam, Dr. Robinson will evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health before recommending the treatment that's right for you.

If a tooth can be saved but needs additional strength, a crown is often the best solution. If a tooth is missing, a bridge may restore your ability to chew comfortably, speak clearly, and maintain proper alignment.

At Robinson Family Dental, every crown and bridge is custom-made to fit comfortably and blend naturally with your smile. We carefully consider your facial features, tooth shape, and the color of your surrounding teeth to create a restoration that looks as natural as it feels.
