What Are Dental Crowns and Bridges?
Two of the most effective and time-tested solutions for restoring damaged or missing
Dental Crown (Cap) Dental Crown (Cap)
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over your existing damaged tooth. It protects the tooth, restores its original shape and size, and makes it look completely natural. Think of it as a protective helmet for your tooth.
Dental Bridge (Fixed)
A dental bridge ‘bridges’ the gap left by one or more missing teeth. It anchors to the healthy adjacent teeth on either side and fills the empty space with a lifelike artificial tooth called a pontic. Unlike removable dentures, a bridge is a permanent, fixed solution.

Dental Crown Procedure at The Smile connect
Simple & Transparent Process
Our streamlined two-visit process ensures you receive your permanent crown comfortably and efficiently. Here is exactly what to expect:
Step 1 — Consultation & X-Ray:
Free consultation, dental examination, and digital X-ray to assess the tooth.
Step 2 — Tooth Preparation:
The tooth is gently shaped under local anaesthesia to prepare it for the crown. The procedure is completely painless.
Step 3 — Impression & Temporary Crown:
A precise impression of your tooth is taken and sent to our certified lab. A temporary crown is placed to protect the tooth.
Step 4 — Lab Fabrication (5–7 Working Days):
Your custom crown is carefully crafted in the lab to match the exact shade, shape, and size of your natural teeth. This takes 5 to 7 working days.
Step 5 — Permanent Placement & Final Polish:
The permanent crown is bonded onto your tooth. The bite is adjusted, the crown is polished, and aftercare instructions are provided.
Important Note: All crowns and bridges at The Smile Connect are custom-crafted using high-quality materials with regular follow-up check-ups for lasting results. Crowns also serve as the final restoration in dental implant treatment, completing the process with a natural-looking finish.

FAQs
How much does a dental crown cost in Kandivali?

We offer complete price transparency with no hidden charges. Please book a free consultation, and our dentist will examine your teeth and share a confirmed quote based on your specific treatment plan.
How many visits does a dental crown require?
A dental crown at The Smile Connect is completed in just 2 visits. During the first visit, the tooth is prepared and an impression is taken, with a temporary crown placed to protect the tooth. The permanent crown is fitted during the second visit, approximately 5 to 7 working days later.
Is the dental crown procedure painful?
No. The tooth preparation is performed under local anaesthesia, ensuring a completely comfortable and painless experience. Most patients are surprised by how easy the procedure is. Some mild sensitivity around the treated tooth is normal for 1 to 2 days after the anaesthesia wears off, but this subsides quickly.
What is the difference between a dental crown and a dental bridge?
A dental crown is placed over an existing damaged tooth to restore, protect, and strengthen it. A dental bridge is used when a tooth is completely missing — it anchors to the two adjacent teeth and places a false tooth (pontic) in the gap. Both are fixed, permanent restorations cemented into place.
