Doctor Elizabeth Kilpatrick Fox on Dental Crowns and Bridges
Speaker 1: If a patient comes in and they have broken-down teeth, and big, gigantic fillings, crowns or bridges are way better than trying to replace with bigger, more filling because they will keep breaking and then they’re gonna end up losing their teeth. Where, if we can protect ’em, cover ’em over with a crown, or connect some together and cover it over with a bridge, now they’re stronger again, and they look great. And the materials they’re using today, literally, are so strong. They don’t break. And you can keep your teeth for your life.
