About Crowns & Bridges

Dental crowns (caps) cover a damaged, decayed, or root-canal-treated tooth — restoring its shape, strength, and natural appearance completely. Bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent healthy teeth. We offer porcelain-fused-to-metal, all-ceramic, and zirconia options. Dr. Pharande takes precise impressions for crowns and bridges that fit perfectly and last for years.

At Yash Dental Clinic, every procedure is performed by Dr. Vaishali S. Pharande — a dental surgeon with over 32 years of hands-on experience. Your comfort and safety are the absolute priority throughout your treatment.

Healthy Habits for Faster Healing & Lifelong Smiles

Protecting your teeth begins with understanding daily habits. Here are proven care guidelines from Dr. Vaishali S. Pharande to avoid recurring dental problems and ensure rapid recovery.

🪥

Gentle 2-Minute Brushing & Flossing

Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush using gentle circular motions. Never scrub aggressively, which erodes enamel and gums. Floss once daily before bed to remove hidden plaque.

💧

Stay Hydrated & Warm Saline Rinses

Water washes away food particles and maintains natural saliva flow. After any procedure, gentle warm salt water rinses reduce swelling and accelerate gum tissue healing naturally.

🍏

Avoid Sugary Habits & Tobacco

Frequent sugary snacks and carbonated drinks nourish decay-causing bacteria. Avoid smoking or chewing tobacco, which severely weakens bone support and slows surgical recovery.

Your Questions Answered

FAQs — Crowns & Bridges

How long do crowns last? +

Well-made dental crowns typically last 10–15 years, and often much longer with proper care. Longevity depends on the material chosen, your bite, and oral hygiene. Zirconia and ceramic crowns are particularly durable. Avoid habits like grinding teeth or biting hard objects to maximise crown lifespan.

Is the crown procedure painful? +

No — the tooth is numbed with local anaesthesia before any drilling. You may feel mild soreness in the gum area for a day or two after the preparation appointment, but this settles quickly. The final crown fitting is completely comfortable.

What is the difference between a crown and a cap? +

They are the same thing — "cap" is just the common informal term for a dental crown. It is a tooth-shaped cover placed over the entire visible portion of a damaged or treated tooth to protect and restore it.

Can I get a bridge instead of an implant? +

Yes — a bridge is a faster and less invasive option for replacing missing teeth. It does not require surgery. However, it requires grinding down the adjacent healthy teeth as anchors, and bone loss continues under the gap over time. An implant preserves bone and does not affect neighbouring teeth. Dr. Pharande will help you choose based on your situation and budget.

How many teeth can a bridge replace? +

A standard bridge typically replaces 1–3 missing teeth in a row. For larger gaps, implant-supported options may be more suitable. The bridge is anchored by crowns on the teeth on either side of the gap, with artificial teeth (pontics) suspended in between.
