Fixed replacements for missing teeth: a small post in the jawbone topped with a natural-looking crown, bridge or denture.
Dental Crowns & Bridges in Lucknow
Protect weak teeth and replace missing ones with fixed restorations
A crown is a cap that covers a damaged or weak tooth. A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by joining an artificial tooth to crowns on the neighbouring teeth or on implants.
What are crowns and bridges?
Crowns restore the shape, strength and look of teeth that are broken, heavily filled, worn or root-canal treated. They can be made of metal, metal-ceramic, or all-ceramic materials such as zirconia.
A bridge is a fixed alternative to a denture: the teeth on either side of the gap are prepared to hold crowns, and an artificial tooth (pontic) is attached between them.
Supporting teeth
The teeth on either side of the gap, shaped to hold crowns.
Artificial tooth
The false tooth that fills the gap.
Crowns
Caps that cover the supporting teeth and hold the bridge in place.
A crown or bridge may be needed for…
- A cracked or broken tooth
- A tooth with a very large filling
- A back tooth after root canal treatment
- Badly worn, discoloured or misshapen teeth
- One or more missing teeth (bridge)
Benefits of Crowns & Bridges
- Protects a weak tooth from breaking
- Restores comfortable chewing
- Fixed in the mouth, not removable
- Ceramic options are matched to your tooth colour
- A bridge fills the gap and stops nearby teeth from drifting
Results differ from person to person. Your dentist will explain what to expect in your case.
Common Crown Materials
Your dentist will suggest a material based on where the tooth is and how much strength it needs.
