Dental Crowns & Bridges in Northeast Brampton

Dental crowns and bridges restore damaged or missing teeth with custom-crafted, tooth-coloured restorations that look and perform like natural teeth. At Gardenbrooke Dental in Northeast Brampton, Dr. Tanya Khattra, DDS, designs each restoration to match your bite and smile.

What Are Crowns and Bridges?

A crown is a custom cap that covers a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, strength and appearance. A bridge uses crowns on the teeth either side of a gap to hold an artificial tooth in place. Crowns can also be placed over dental implants.

When You May Need One

  • A large cavity or a cracked, weak tooth.
  • A tooth that has had a root canal.
  • A missing tooth that needs to be replaced.
  • Worn or misshapen teeth.

Materials

Crowns are made from porcelain, zirconia or a combination of materials and are colour-matched to neighbouring teeth.

Benefits

  • Restores biting and chewing function.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do crowns and bridges last?

Well-made crowns and bridges typically last 10 to 15 years or longer. Lifespan depends on the material, oral hygiene and bite habits.

Does getting a crown hurt?

You should not feel pain during the procedure because it is done under local anaesthesia. Some sensitivity and soreness in the first few days is normal and usually settles on its own.

Should I get a bridge or an implant for a missing tooth?

Implants are generally considered the best option for replacing a single tooth because they preserve bone and do not require reducing neighbouring teeth. Bridges are a valid choice when implants are not suitable or as a more affordable alternative.

What materials are crowns made from?

Porcelain, zirconia or a combination, colour-matched to your teeth.

How much does a crown cost?

Porcelain crowns start from $1,200 and three-unit porcelain bridges from $3,600. We confirm your cost before treatment.
