A crown (cap) covers a broken, heavily decayed or root-treated tooth to protect it from fracturing. A bridge replaces a single missing tooth by anchoring an artificial tooth to the two teeth either side. At Tooth Point Dental Care, crowns cost ৳4,000–15,000.
When you need it
When you need one

How it’s done
How it's done
At the first visit the tooth is shaped and an impression taken. The crown takes 5–7 days at the lab; you wear a temporary cap meanwhile. The permanent crown is fitted at the second visit.
