Dental Crowns and Bridges are restorative dental treatments used to repair damaged teeth and replace missing teeth. A dental crown covers and protects a weakened, broken, or heavily restored tooth while helping restore its shape, strength, and appearance.
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by using supporting teeth or other suitable structures to hold the replacement tooth in position. Crowns and bridges can improve chewing, support proper tooth alignment, and restore the appearance of your smile.
At Krystal Dental Care, we evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health before recommending the most suitable crown or bridge option. Our goal is to provide a comfortable, functional, and natural-looking restoration based on your individual needs.

Key Benefits.
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers a damaged, weakened, or heavily restored tooth to improve its strength, shape, and appearance. A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth and fill the space in your smile.
A crown may be recommended to protect a weakened tooth, restore a broken tooth, support a tooth after root canal treatment, or improve its appearance. A bridge may be recommended to replace missing teeth and help restore chewing function and tooth alignment
The lifespan of a crown or bridge depends on the material, oral hygiene, bite forces, supporting teeth, and regular dental care. With proper care, many restorations can provide reliable service for many years.
The process may require one or more appointments depending on the type of restoration and the clinical situation. During the first visit, the tooth is evaluated and prepared, and a temporary restoration may be placed. The final crown is then fitted and adjusted at the appropriate appointment.
The procedure is generally performed with local anesthesia to keep you comfortable during tooth preparation. Some sensitivity or mild discomfort may occur after the appointment and usually settles as the mouth adapts to the restoration.
Brush twice daily, clean carefully around the bridge, and use floss or recommended interdental cleaning aids to remove plaque from underneath and around the restoration. Regular dental checkups and professional cleanings also help maintain the health of the bridge and supporting teeth.
