Dental Crowns& Bridges
Custom-crafted crowns and bridges that restore damaged, broken, or missing teeth — beautifully designed to blend seamlessly with your natural smile.
Crowns vs Bridges
Restore Your Smile's Strength and Beauty
A dental crown is a full-coverage restoration that encases the entire visible portion of a damaged or weakened tooth above the gumline. Whether a tooth has been fractured, severely decayed, cracked, or treated with a root canal, a crown restores it to its original shape, size, and strength. Modern porcelain and ceramic crowns are fabricated to match the exact colour and translucency of your natural enamel, making the restoration virtually invisible.
A dental bridge is a fixed prosthesis used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of two crowns placed on the healthy teeth on either side of the gap — called abutment teeth — with one or more artificial teeth (pontics) suspended between them. Bridges are permanently cemented in place, restoring the appearance of a complete smile and preventing the neighbouring teeth from drifting into the empty space.
Key Benefits
- All-ceramic and porcelain-fused options for natural aesthetics
- Crowns protect teeth weakened by decay, fractures, or root canal therapy
- Bridges replace missing teeth without surgery, fixed permanently in place
- Digital impressions for a precise, comfortable fit — no messy moulds
- Durable restorations lasting 10–20 years with proper care
Why Choose This Treatment
The Advantages
Restores Full Function
A well-fitted crown or bridge allows you to bite and chew with confidence, distributing forces naturally and protecting the underlying tooth structure from further damage.
Natural Aesthetics
Our high-quality porcelain restorations are shade-matched and contoured to blend flawlessly with your surrounding teeth — most people will never know you had dental work done.
Prevents Further Damage
A crown seals and protects a compromised tooth from bacteria, cracking, and further decay. A bridge prevents neighbouring teeth from drifting and shifting out of alignment.
Long-Lasting Investment
With good oral hygiene and regular checkups, crowns and bridges typically last 10–20 years or longer. They are one of the most cost-effective restorative solutions available.
Is This Right for You?
Who Needs a Crown or Bridge?
During your consultation, Dr. Khurana will assess your individual needs and determine if this treatment is the right fit for you.
Schedule a Consultation- Teeth that are severely decayed and cannot be adequately restored with a filling alone — a crown provides full coverage protection
- Cracked, fractured, or broken teeth at risk of splitting further under biting forces — a crown holds the tooth together permanently
- Teeth that have undergone root canal therapy, which can make them brittle and vulnerable without the protection of a crown
- Patients missing one or more teeth who want a fixed, non-removable replacement without the surgery involved in implant placement
What to Expect
The Treatment Process
Consultation & Assessment
Dr. Khurana examines the tooth or gap with digital X-rays to assess the extent of damage, bone levels, and overall health. We discuss your options, including crowns, bridges, and implants, so you can make an informed decision.
Tooth Preparation & Impression
The tooth is shaped to accommodate the crown or the abutment teeth are prepared for the bridge. We take precise digital impressions to send to our dental laboratory. A temporary restoration protects the tooth while your permanent restoration is crafted.
Crown or Bridge Placement
When the custom restoration returns from the lab — typically within two weeks — we check the fit, bite, and colour carefully before permanently cementing it in place. Final adjustments ensure a perfectly comfortable, natural result.
