Crowns & Bridges

If you need a crown to repair a damaged tooth or a bridge to replace missing teeth then Dr. Pradeep offers superior results as an expert prosthodontist. With his extensive training and experience creating crowns and bridges, you can always trust that the prosthesis will look and feel natural. Nobody but you and our team at Pradeep’s Dentystree will ever need to know that you have a crown or bridge!

What to expect during the treatment process

To start the process, Dr. Pradeep will prepare your tooth, creating a stable platform that can support the new dental crown. An impression of your tooth will then be taken to ensure that your custom crown is the perfect size and shape for your mouth. Once the crown is created, it will be permanently attached. If you are receiving a bridge, two crowns will be attached to healthy teeth on either side of the empty space, and a false tooth (also called a “pontic”) will be suspended in-between.
