Typically, dental crowns cover a single tooth that has lost most of its surface due to extensive decay, breakage or root canal therapy. Teeth become brittle and break easily after root canal therapy. A bridge can replace a single, or multiple teeth that have been lost.
The pontic or false tooth is connected together and anchored on abutment teeth. Crowns and bridges are usually made of gold or porcelain fused to metal.
