Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges are effective restorative solutions used to repair and replace damaged or missing teeth. They not only restore the functionality of your teeth but also improve the appearance of your smile.
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers a damaged, decayed, or weakened tooth. It restores the tooth’s shape, strength, and function while protecting it from further damage. Crowns are typically recommended after a root canal treatment, for cracked or worn-down teeth, or to enhance the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth. They are made from durable materials like porcelain, ceramic, or metal, and are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of artificial teeth (pontics) that are anchored in place using crowns on the adjacent healthy teeth. Bridges help maintain the alignment of your remaining teeth, prevent bite problems, and restore your ability to chew and speak properly.
At Dr. Nathani Dental Clinic, we offer high-quality crowns and bridges that are tailored to each patient’s dental structure and aesthetic preferences. Using advanced digital scanning and precise fabrication techniques, we ensure a perfect fit and long-lasting results.
Benefits of Crowns and Bridges:

The procedure for crowns and bridges typically involves two visits. During the first visit, the teeth are prepared and digital impressions are taken. A temporary crown or bridge may be placed. In the second visit, the permanent crown or bridge is securely fixed using dental cement.
With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, crowns and bridges can last for many years. Avoiding hard or sticky foods and maintaining good brushing and flossing habits can help extend their life.
If you have a damaged tooth or missing teeth affecting your daily life or smile, dental crowns and bridges might be the ideal solution. Schedule a consultation at Dr. Nathani Dental Clinic to explore personalized restorative options and bring back the function and beauty of your smile.
