Crowns and Bridges

Custom dental crowns and bridges in Katy, TX restore damaged and missing teeth to full strength, full function, and a natural-looking finish.

What are Crowns and Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges are two of the most common and reliable restorations in dentistry, used to repair and replace teeth that can no longer do their job on their own.

A dental crown is a custom cap that fits over a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and appearance. Crowns are most commonly placed after a root canal, on a severely cracked tooth, or to replace a large failing filling.

A dental bridge fills the gap created by one or more missing teeth. It consists of one or two artificial teeth held in place by crowns anchored to the natural teeth on either side. Bridges are fixed in place, no removing, no adhesives.

Benefits of Crowns and Bridges

A cracked, broken, or missing tooth affects more than just your appearance — it changes how you eat, how you speak, and over time, the alignment of your surrounding teeth. Here’s what crowns and bridges do for you:

  • Full Function Restored: Crowns and bridges bring back your ability to eat and chew comfortably without pain, sensitivity, or concern about further damage.
  • Prevents Future Problems: Crowns protect weakened teeth from breaking further, and bridges prevent neighboring teeth from drifting into the gap left by a missing tooth.
  • Built to Last: With proper care and regular checkups, most crowns and bridges hold up for 10 to 15 years or more.
