Sometimes, people use the terms dental bridge and crown interchangeably.
Dental bridges are usually made with multiple crowns. Crowns are metal or
porcelain caps that are placed over broken, chipped, worn teeth or teeth that have had root canals. They are effective in protecting the remaining tooth structure from potential or further fracture. Dental bridges are typically two or more crowns, attached by a fake tooth to “ bridge” the gap in the mouth.
