Crown & Bridge Treatment in Anjali

Tooth decay that is caught early can often be treated with a simple filling. When decay has been left for a while, the tooth may be too damaged for that. Patients from Anjali sometimes come to us with a large cavity, and a crown is then the better way to rebuild and protect the tooth.

Dr. Prattik Kkeswani, a prosthodontist, checks how much sound tooth is left before suggesting a crown. The goal is always to keep your natural tooth where possible.

When a Filling Is Not Enough for Anjali Patients

A filling needs strong tooth walls around it to stay in place. If decay has eaten away large parts of those walls, a big filling can crack or fall out, and the tooth itself may break. A crown covers the whole tooth and holds the remaining parts together, which makes chewing safer.

Deep decay often gives few warning signs until a piece breaks off or the tooth starts to ache. You may notice a dark spot, a hole where food gets stuck or pain with sweets. By then the damage inside can be larger than it looks from outside. An X-ray helps show the true size of the cavity before a plan is made.

The Treatment Path for a Decayed Tooth in Anjali

• Removing the decay: All soft decay is cleaned out under local anaesthesia.
• Checking the nerve: An X-ray shows whether decay has reached the pulp and needs root canal treatment.
• Building up the core: A filling material may be used to rebuild the base of the tooth.
• Placing the crown: Impressions are taken, a temporary is fitted and the permanent crown follows.

Stopping New Decay Around Crowns in Anjali

A crown itself cannot decay, but the natural tooth at its edge still can. Brush twice a day, floss along the gum line and cut down on sugary snacks between meals. People who pass Anjali Cross Roads on their daily route can keep check-ups short and regular, which helps catch early problems.
