Most people have no idea that crowns and bridges are the same things. Crowns can be made from porcelain or gold, while a bridge is usually acrylic anchored to teeth on either side. Both devices are attached with cement to remain firmly fixed for as long as possible because they do not move as regular dentures would otherwise.

Many patients think you need two special appointments - one for getting your tooth pulled and another when it gets replaced by something better than a metal appliance which could give someone terrible breath all day! The good news is both procedures happen at once nowadays, so there's only one appointment needed if these treatments sound right for you!
