Talking dentistry, not millinery!

[Mamyalynne]

No difference.

technically no difference ... but a crown will probably cost you more :-)

[Octavius]

Nothing. Terms are interchangeable, they both wrap around the remains of a damaged tooth.

There is no differnce - a 'cap' is a laymans term for a 'crown'.

Thanks very much, just as I suspected!
