Crowns & Bridges
At London Heritage Dental, Dr. Veenu Lekhi believes in educating every patient thoroughly so we can create a treatment plan that fits both your oral health needs and your budget. We’re proud to offer dental crowns and bridges to restore the function and appearance of damaged or missing teeth, helping you achieve a healthy, confident smile.
What Are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown — sometimes called a cap — is a custom-made covering that fully encases a damaged or weakened tooth. Crowns strengthen teeth that are cracked, heavily decayed, or have undergone root canal treatment, preventing further damage. They also improve the shape, alignment, and appearance of teeth affected by large fillings, wear from grinding, or aging.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Unlike crowns, dental bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth (or teeth) to the neighboring natural teeth. Bridges restore your ability to chew properly and prevent shifting of surrounding teeth, eliminating uncomfortable gaps.
If you’re experiencing dental damage or tooth loss, book a consultation with Dr. Lekhi at London Heritage Dental to explore how crowns or bridges can help restore your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its strength and appearance. Crowns are commonly recommended after root canal therapy, large fillings, or cracks. If you think you need a crown, schedule a consultation with Dr. Lekhi to explore your options.
A dental bridge fills the gap left by missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth between two healthy teeth, restoring chewing function and preventing teeth from shifting. To find out if a bridge is right for you, contact London Heritage Dental today.
Crowns and bridges can be crafted from porcelain, ceramic, metal alloys, or a combination—porcelain and ceramic are popular for their natural look. Discuss with Dr. Lekhi which material best suits your needs by booking an appointment.
With proper care, crowns and bridges can last 10 to 15 years or more. Maintaining good oral hygiene and regular dental visits at London Heritage Dental will help maximize their lifespan.
The procedure is typically comfortable and performed under local anesthesia. Any mild sensitivity afterward usually subsides quickly. If you’re concerned about discomfort, speak with Dr. Lekhi during your consultation for tailored care options.
