How many sittings are required for a dental crown or bridge?

Crown treatment typically requires 2 short visits spaced 3 to 5 days apart, Visit 1 for digital scanning & tooth preparation, and Visit 2 for final crown bonding.

What is the difference between a dental crown and a dental bridge?

A crown is a protective cap fitted over a single damaged tooth. A bridge uses crowns on adjacent teeth to support a false tooth over a missing gap.

How long do zirconia and ceramic crowns last?

High-grade zirconia and ceramic crowns last between 12 to 20+ years when supported by good oral hygiene and routine dental checkups.

Is tooth preparation for a crown painful?

No! Tooth shaping is performed under local anaesthesia, so the tooth is completely numb and comfortable throughout.
