Crown & Bridge Treatment in Shivranjani

Crowns and bridges can be made from several materials, and each has its own strengths. Choosing well depends on where the tooth is, how you bite and how natural you want it to look. For people in Shivranjani, a quick guide to the options makes the conversation with the dentist easier.

At our clinic, prosthodontist Dr. Prattik Kkeswani recommends a material after examining your teeth. Brands used at the clinic include 3M (Lava) and Ivoclar.

Crown Materials Explained for Shivranjani Patients

• Zirconia: Strong and tooth-coloured, often used for back teeth and bridges. 3M Lava is one zirconia system used at the clinic.
• Ceramic (E-max): Known for a lifelike look, often chosen for front teeth. E-max is made by Ivoclar.
• Porcelain fused to metal (PFM): A metal core with a porcelain layer for a tooth-coloured surface.
• Metal: Very strong and needs less tooth shaping, used mainly where it will not show.

How the Material Is Chosen in Shivranjani Cases

The dentist looks at three main things. The first is tooth position, since front teeth need a natural look while back teeth need to handle heavy chewing. The second is your bite, including whether you grind or clench. The third is appearance, such as how much the tooth shows when you smile and the colour of the teeth around it. The amount of healthy tooth left can also affect the choice. You can read more on our zirconia crowns and bridges page.

From Material to Fitting for Shivranjani Patients

Once the material is agreed, the tooth is prepared under local anaesthesia and impressions are taken for an accurate fit. A temporary crown protects the tooth while the permanent one is made. At fitting, the crown is matched to the shade, shape and size of your natural teeth and the bite is adjusted. Our facilities page describes the clinic setting. Patients from near Shivranjani Cross Roads are welcome to ask for samples or pictures of each material during the consultation. Seeing them side by side often makes the choice much clearer.
