Common Questions About Dental Crowns and Bridges
How long do dental crowns last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, zirconia crowns can last 15 years or more. Metal-ceramic crowns also offer durable long-term function. Longevity depends on bite forces, grinding habits, and care routines.
What is the difference between a dental crown and a bridge?
A crown covers and protects a single damaged tooth. A bridge spans a gap left by a missing tooth, anchoring to the natural teeth on either side to support a false tooth in between.
Is getting a dental crown painful?
Crown preparation is done under local anaesthesia so discomfort during the appointment is minimal. Some sensitivity after the appointment is common and temporary. A well-fitted crown causes no ongoing discomfort once fully cemented.
How many visits does a dental crown require?
A conventional crown usually needs two visits: one for tooth preparation and temporary crown placement, and a second for permanent crown fitting. The dentist will advise on the best option for your specific case.
