Quick Facts
Essential information about this procedure
“A well-placed crown doesn't just protect your tooth — it gives you back the confidence to eat, speak, and smile without thinking twice.”
Why Crowns and Bridges Work So Well
When a tooth is cracked, decayed, or missing entirely, leaving it untreated almost always makes things worse. Adjacent teeth shift, biting becomes uneven, and what starts as one problem can become several.
Dental crowns solve this by covering the damaged tooth completely — protecting it from further wear while restoring its shape and strength. The crown is custom-made to match the color and contour of your surrounding teeth, so it blends in naturally.
Bridges take care of the gap when a tooth is lost altogether. Two crowns anchor to the teeth on either side of the space, with an artificial tooth in between filling the gap. The result is a stable, natural-looking restoration that lets you chew and speak normally.
At Elmora Dental in Elizabeth, NJ, Dr. Sonal Deshpande takes the time to review your X-rays, examine your gums, and talk through your goals before recommending a course of treatment. Every crown and bridge is customized to your mouth — not a one-size-fits-all solution. After placement, keeping your restoration in great shape is straightforward: brush, floss, and come in for your regular checkups.

Learn moreCommon Questions About Crowns & Bridges
How do I know if I need a crown or a bridge?
A crown is used to cover and protect a single damaged or weakened tooth, while a bridge fills the gap left by one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the teeth on either side. At Elmora Dental, we'll evaluate your specific situation and explain clearly which option makes the most sense — and why — before we do anything.
Will a crown or bridge look like my natural teeth?
Yes. Our crowns and bridges are custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth. Most people won't be able to tell the difference between a well-fitted crown and a natural tooth. Looking natural is something we take seriously at Elmora Dental.
How many appointments will I need to get a crown?
Getting a crown typically requires two visits. At the first appointment, we prepare the tooth and place a temporary crown. At the second visit, we fit and cement your permanent custom crown. We'll keep you informed at each step so you always know what's coming.
Does insurance cover crowns and bridges?
Most dental insurance plans provide partial coverage for crowns and bridges when they're medically necessary, though the amount varies by plan. Our team will check your benefits and let you know your estimated out-of-pocket cost before treatment begins. We want affordable dental treatment to be a realistic option for your family.
How long will a crown or bridge last?
With proper care, dental crowns and bridges typically last 10 to 15 years or longer. Regular brushing, flossing — especially under a bridge — and routine checkups at our Elizabeth, NJ office will help extend their lifespan. If anything starts to shift or loosen, come in and we'll address it early.
Every crown and bridge we place is designed around one goal: giving you back a tooth that feels so natural, you stop thinking about it entirely.
