Dental Crowns
and Bridges
in Ras Al-Khaimah
Difference between
Dental Crowns and Dental Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges serve different purposes in restorative
dentistry at Nebras Medical Center in Ras Al Khaimah:
Dental Crowns: A crown is a single cap that covers a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appear- ance. Crowns are used to protect weakened teeth, cover large fill- ings, or improve the tooth’s appearance.
Dental Bridges: A bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth (pontic) between two crowns placed on the adjacent teeth. The crowns serve as supports for the bridge, filling the gap and restoring the function and appear- ance of the missing teeth.

Types of Dental Crowns
Porcelain Crowns
Made of high-quality ceramic,
these crowns provide a natural
look and are ideal for front teeth
due to their translucency.
Metal Crowns
Made from alloys like gold or
platinum, metal crowns are highly
durable and are often used for back
teeth where strength is crucial.
Porcelain-Fused- to-Metal Crowns
These crowns combine a metal base
with a porcelain exterior, offering
both strength and a natural
appearance.
Zirconia Crowns
Made from a strong,
tooth-colored material, zirconia
crowns are durable and provide
an aesthetic result.
Resin Crowns
Made from composite resin,
these crowns are less expensive
but may wear out faster
compared to other types.

Same-day crowns are durable, pre- cise, and provide a natural-looking result, making them a popular choice for quick and effective dental restoration.
