What Are Crowns and Bridges?
Reliable, custom-crafted restorations to rebuild your bite.
A dental crown (often called a 'cap') is a custom-fitted restoration that completely covers a damaged or weak tooth. It strengthens the tooth structure, restores its natural shape, and protects it from fracturing under chewing forces. Crowns are standard protection after root canal treatments.
A dental bridge is a fixed appliance used to replace one or more missing teeth. It spans the gap where teeth are missing, anchoring securely onto the healthy natural teeth or implants on either side of the empty space. These anchoring teeth are capped to support the false tooth (pontic) in between.
At our clinic, we use high-grade materials including zirconia, metal-free ceramics, and porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) to ensure your crowns and bridges match the shade, size, and function of your natural teeth.

The Procedure
Step-by-step crown and bridge fitting process.
Tooth Preparation & Shading
The dentist shapes the outer surface of the tooth to create space for the cap. We select the matching tooth shade using a physical shade guide.
Precision Dental Impressions
We take highly accurate impressions or digital scans of your prepared teeth and opposing jaws to send to the dental laboratory.
Temporary Cap Placement
A temporary crown or bridge is placed to protect your prepared teeth and maintain your chewing ability while the final cap is being made.
Crown Fit Trial & Bonding
Once the laboratory delivers your custom cap, we try it in, check your bite, and permanently cement it onto your tooth using medical-grade adhesive.
Comfort Tuning & Checkup
We adjust the height of the crown if needed, ensuring your bite feels perfectly balanced without any high spots.

Materials and cost factors
Understanding crowns and bridges cost in Viman Nagar.
The cost of crowns and bridges varies based on the underlying material. Zirconia and E-max metal-free ceramic options are premium due to their aesthetics and durability. PFM (Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal) is a robust and cost-effective alternative.

We will discuss the benefits of each material for your specific tooth position—recommending highly aesthetic ceramics for front smile lines and high-strength zirconia for back chewing teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently asked questions about crowns and bridges.
Is it necessary to get a crown after a root canal treatment?
Yes, in almost all cases. A root canal treated tooth loses its blood supply and becomes dry, brittle, and highly prone to cracking under chewing pressure. A crown covers and reinforces the tooth, preventing it from fracturing.
What is the difference between a crown and a bridge?
A crown is a single cap designed to cover and protect a single damaged tooth. A bridge is a multi-unit restoration designed to replace one or more missing teeth by bridging the gap, anchoring onto the healthy teeth on either side.
What is the cost of dental crowns in Viman Nagar, Pune?
The cost of a dental crown varies by material. Standard PFM crowns range from Rs. 2,000 to Rs. 4,500. Metal-free premium Zirconia or E-max crowns generally cost between Rs. 5,500 to Rs. 15,000+ per tooth, which includes laboratory warranties.
Is the procedure to prepare a tooth for a cap painful?
No. The dentist prepares the tooth under local anesthesia, so the tooth and surrounding gums are completely numb. You might feel mild pressure, but no pain. Some mild post-operative sensitivity is normal for a few days after preparation.
Are zirconia crowns better than porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM)?
Zirconia is highly superior in strength, durability, and aesthetics. Unlike PFM, zirconia does not have a dark metal core, meaning it will never show a dark shadow at the gum line and is far less likely to chip or wear down opposing teeth.
How do I care for my dental bridge?
You must clean your bridge daily by brushing twice a day. You should also use special super-floss or interdental brushes to clean the gap underneath the artificial hanging tooth (pontic), as food accumulation there can cause decay on the supporting teeth.
What should I do if my crown falls off?
If a crown comes loose or falls off, keep it clean and contact us immediately to schedule an appointment. Do not try to glue it back yourself. If the tooth underneath is healthy, we can clean the crown and cement it back securely.
