A dental âflipperâ is a temporary denture. It is typically used to fill in the gap in your smile while youâre waiting for dental implants, a dental bridge, or partial permanent dentures. But since flippers are the most affordable dental restoration option, sometimes people choose to use their flipper for years.
A crown is a tooth-shaped cover placed over a tooth that is badly damaged or decayed. Many people call it a cap. Crowns may be placed for several reasons. Usually the tooth has been broken or severely damaged by decay. As a result, a filling can't replace enough of the tooth or make the tooth strong enough. A crown may hold together parts of a cracked tooth. It also can be used to hold a bridge in place. Crowns can be used to improve appearance as well. They may be placed to cover misshapen or badly discolored teeth.
