Dental Crowns & Bridges

How it works at Paradise Dental

Crown and bridge treatment on the 22nd floor of Burj Al Salam Tower begins with a free consultation and a full digital workup. We scan your teeth with the iTero digital scanner instead of impression trays, and when a tooth's history is unclear — an old root canal, a deep crack, a failing post — we add 3D CBCT imaging to check the root and surrounding bone before recommending anything. From there you have two paths. Straightforward single crowns can often be designed, milled, and bonded in one visit using our in-house CEREC system. Multi-unit bridges and demanding front-tooth cases go to our partner laboratory, where a ceramist layers the porcelain by hand for a more nuanced color match. Our DHA-licensed specialists will tell you plainly which path fits your tooth; speed is never worth a compromised fit.

Are you a candidate?

A crown is typically the right call when a tooth is cracked, heavily filled, worn flat by grinding, or brittle after root canal treatment — situations where a filling can no longer hold the tooth together. A bridge suits patients missing one or two neighboring teeth whose adjacent teeth are strong enough to carry the load, especially if those anchor teeth already need crowns themselves. Two things can delay treatment: active gum disease, which must be stabilized first so the restoration sits on healthy foundations, and insufficient remaining tooth structure, which may call for a core build-up — or a different plan altogether.

Crown, bridge, or implant?

If the teeth beside your gap are completely healthy, trimming them to anchor a bridge sacrifices intact enamel. In that scenario dental implants often make better long-term sense, and we will show you both options side by side rather than defaulting to one.

The procedure step by step

1. Preparation. The tooth is numbed and reshaped under local anaesthetic; anxious patients can add IV sedation with our licensed anaesthetist.
2. Digital scan. An iTero scan captures the prepared tooth and your bite.
3. Fabrication. Same-day cases are milled while you wait; laboratory cases receive a fitted temporary to wear in the meantime.
4. Fitting. We verify shade, contact points, and bite with intraoral camera checks before bonding, then fine-tune the occlusion until the restoration feels like your own tooth.

Recovery & aftercare in Dubai

Expect mild temperature sensitivity for a few days — go easy on iced drinks, an everyday reality in a Dubai summer. If you are wearing a temporary, avoid sticky foods; dates and caramel are the usual culprits. Once the final restoration is in, brush normally and clean under any bridge daily with superfloss or a water flosser, because the gum line beneath the false tooth is where trouble starts. If you grind at night, a custom night guard protects your investment. Since our clinic is a five-minute walk from World Trade Centre Metro, fitting review visits around a Sheikh Zayed Road work schedule is straightforward.

Cost & insurance in Dubai

The final fee depends on the material, the number of units, whether a build-up or root canal is needed first, and same-day versus laboratory fabrication — you receive a fixed written quote at your free consultation before any drilling begins. We bill Daman, AXA, Cigna, Bupa Global, Allianz Care, Oman Insurance, Neuron, Nextcare, and Mednet directly (MetLife by reimbursement), and many UAE plans contribute when a crown is medically necessary. Interest-free instalments are available through Tabby, Tamara, and Postpay, and every case is backed by our 12-month treatment guarantee and 5-year warranty on lab work.
