Crowns and bridges are permanent fixtures within the mouth that restore a natural aesthetic and also function like regular teeth. The difference between the two is that bridges close those ugly and unhealthy gaps in which teeth are missing. Alternatively, crowns improve the aesthetic of teeth, repair teeth or strengthen them. Crowns are optimal for teeth that are misshaped, fractured or weak. Veneers are placed on teeth that have damage or stains to beautify their appearance. Veneers can also be used on misshapen, misaligned, cracked or chipped teeth.
