Restore damaged or missing teeth with natural-looking solutions.
Damaged or missing teeth can affect how you eat, speak and feel about your smile. Dental crowns and bridges are custom-made restorations designed to restore the appearance and function of your teeth.
At Acme Dental, Dr Ahalya provides personalised crown and bridge treatment with a focus on creating a comfortable, functional and natural-looking result that complements your smile.
A custom-made restoration that covers and protects an existing tooth — recommended when a tooth has been significantly weakened or damaged and a regular filling may no longer provide enough protection.
Replaces one or more missing teeth by placing a replacement tooth in the gap, supported by neighbouring teeth — helping restore your smile and everyday function.
Dr Ahalya will assess the tooth and discuss whether a crown or another treatment option is most suitable.
We’ll assess your teeth, gums and bite before discussing whether a dental bridge is an appropriate option for you.
We’ll examine your teeth and discuss your concerns and treatment goals. Dental X-rays may be taken where necessary.
For a crown or conventional bridge, the supporting tooth or teeth are carefully prepared to create space for the restoration.
Measurements or impressions of your teeth are taken so your crown or bridge can be custom-made to suit your bite and smile.
Once ready, Dr Ahalya will check the fit, bite and appearance before securely placing your final restoration.
Lifespan varies depending on your oral health, bite, diet and habits such as teeth grinding. Regular check-ups, good brushing and flossing, and appropriate preventive care can help maintain your restoration.
Teeth that have undergone root canal treatment can sometimes require additional protection, particularly back teeth. Dr Ahalya may recommend a crown to help protect and restore it.
Often, yes — teeth that have had root canal treatment can become more brittle, so a crown helps protect and strengthen the tooth for the long term.
A crown covers and protects a single damaged or weakened tooth. A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth to the adjacent natural teeth or crowns.
Pricing depends on the material and complexity of your case. Book a consultation and we’ll assess your tooth and provide an accurate cost estimate.
The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so discomfort during treatment is minimal. Some sensitivity for a few days afterward is normal and settles quickly.
If you have a broken, heavily damaged or missing tooth, book a consultation with Dr Ahalya. We’ll assess your teeth, explain the available options and help you decide on an appropriate treatment.
