A crown-sometimes called a cap-is a tooth like covering placed over a carefully prepared existing tooth. Most crowns are made of porcelain, a stain resistant material that closely replicates the appearance and function of your natural teeth. Used to strengthen, restore or improve the appearance of your natural tooth a crown is placed on an individual tooth. Crowns are also used to support teeth when there is no longer sufficient tooth structure left to place a filling. Crowns can be Metal, Ceramometal or Metal free ceramic. At Smita Dental Care Centre / Excel Dent Clinic, Vashi, Navi Mumbai offers a range of crowns and bridges to perfectly suit according to patient's occlusion and esthetics.
A bridge is a custom device anchored to neighboring teeth that replaces one or more missing teeth. When a lost tooth is replaced with bridgework, the teeth on either side of the missing one must be prepared as crowns which will serve as abutments to hold the replaced teeth in place.
