Overview

About crowns & bridges at The Dent Architect

A crown covers and protects a damaged or weakened tooth, while a bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to neighbouring teeth. Both require careful preparation, shade matching, and bite adjustment to feel natural and last. Dr. Sudeshna Sharma plans each crown and bridge with attention to how your teeth meet when you chew and how your smile looks from every angle. We explain when a crown is enough, when a bridge makes sense, and when an implant may be the better long-term choice.

Your journey

How the process usually works

Every case is personal — this is the typical path so you know what to expect before you visit.

  1. Examination and X-rays to confirm the tooth or gap is suitable for a crown or bridge

  2. Tooth preparation, impressions, and a temporary crown or bridge placed

  3. Laboratory fabrication of the final restoration to match shade and bite

  4. Cementation of the permanent crown or bridge with fit and bite checks

  5. Review visit to confirm comfort and address any adjustments needed

Questions

Answers before you book

Straight talk from a specialist clinic — so you can decide with clarity, not pressure.

How long do crowns and bridges last?

With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, quality crowns and bridges often last 10–15 years or longer. Longevity depends on bite forces, gum health, and habits like grinding. We monitor your restorations at review visits and advise when replacement is needed.

Will my crown or bridge look natural?

We select shade, translucency, and shape to blend with your surrounding teeth. For front teeth, aesthetics receive extra attention. You can discuss your preferences before the final restoration is made.

Is a bridge better than an implant for a missing tooth?

It depends on the health of neighbouring teeth, bone condition, and your preferences. A bridge is faster and avoids surgery but requires preparing adjacent teeth. Implants do not affect neighbouring teeth but need adequate bone. We compare both options clearly.
