Crown & Bridge Treatment in Ambawadi

A sharp pain when you bite, or a twinge with cold drinks, can be a sign of a cracked tooth. For people in Ambawadi, getting it checked early gives the best chance of saving the tooth. A crown is often used to hold a cracked tooth together and stop the crack from spreading.

Dr. Prattik Kkeswani, a prosthodontist at Kkeswani Dental & Polyclinic, examines the tooth and explains whether a crown, a filling or another step is needed.

Signs of a Cracked Tooth for Ambawadi Residents

• Pain on release: A quick pain when you let go of a bite is common with cracks.
• Sensitivity: Cold, hot or sweet food may cause discomfort in one tooth.
• A visible line: Sometimes a fine line or a chipped edge can be seen in a mirror.
• Food catching: A rough edge may trap food or feel sharp to the tongue.

How a Crown Helps a Cracked Tooth in Ambawadi

A crown covers the tooth on all sides, which keeps the cracked parts from moving apart during chewing. To make room for it, a thin outer layer is trimmed while the area is numb. A mould goes to the lab, and a short-term cap guards the cracked tooth meanwhile. At the second appointment the lab-made crown is cemented and your bite is fine-tuned. If the crack has reached the nerve, root canal treatment may be needed before the crown.

Protecting a Cracked Tooth in Ambawadi Before Treatment

Until you are seen, keep chewing away from the sore tooth and skip crunchy things like ice cubes or whole nuts. Try not to test the tooth by biting on it again and again, because each bite can open the crack a little more. Lukewarm food and drinks are usually kinder than very cold ones. Families who walk near Parimal Garden often notice these symptoms during meals and put off a visit, but a crack can grow over time. X-rays help to check the roots and the bone, and our dental X-ray page explains this step. Small cracks limited to the surface are sometimes repaired with a filling instead, and you will be told if this applies to you.
