Prosthodontics | Crowns, Bridges, Dentures and Full Mouth Rehabilitation
Prosthodontics is the dental specialty that focuses on replacing or restoring missing and damaged teeth to bring back chewing ability, bite function and smile appearance. Whether you need a single crown, a fixed bridge, a complete set of dentures or a full mouth rehabilitation plan, prosthodontics covers all of these.
At Elite Dental Studio, our prosthodontics and implantology team offers specialist-led tooth replacement and restoration at our clinics in Calicut, Kochi and Kannur. Every case is assessed individually based on your remaining teeth, gum health, bone support and functional needs before treatment is planned.
Prosthodontic Treatments at Elite Dental Studio
Our team offers a complete range of tooth restoration and replacement options:
Dental crown: A cap fitted over a damaged, weakened or root canal treated tooth to restore its shape, strength and function.
Dental bridge: A fixed replacement for a missing tooth or teeth, supported by the adjacent teeth on either side.
Complete denture: A full removable set of teeth for patients who have lost all their teeth on one or both jaws.
Partial denture: A removable appliance that replaces several missing teeth while the remaining natural teeth stay in place.
Implant-supported crown or bridge: A crown or bridge fixed onto one or more dental implants rather than natural teeth.
Full mouth rehabilitation: A coordinated treatment plan to repair or replace multiple teeth across both jaws, improving bite, chewing and appearance.
Your prosthodontist recommends the right option after reviewing your X-rays, gum condition, bite and the number and position of missing or damaged teeth.
Crowns vs. Bridges vs. Dentures vs. Implants
| Option | Best Suited For |
|---|---|
| Crown | Single damaged or weakened tooth that still has a viable root. |
| Bridge | One to three missing teeth with healthy adjacent teeth available as support. |
| Partial denture | Multiple missing teeth where a removable option is preferred or budget is a factor. |
| Complete denture | Full jaw tooth loss requiring a removable replacement set. |
| Implant crown or bridge | Missing teeth where a fixed solution is preferred and bone support is sufficient. |
| Full mouth rehab | Widespread damage, multiple missing teeth and bite problems needing a full plan. |
Your prosthodontist will explain the advantages and limitations of each option for your specific case and help you decide based on clinical suitability, budget and long-term outcome.
What to Expect During Prosthodontic Treatment?
Most prosthodontic treatments involve multiple appointments. A crown or bridge typically requires two to three visits: one for examination and tooth preparation, one for fitting and adjustment. Dentures may require three to five visits including impressions, try-ins and final fitting.
Full mouth rehabilitation is planned over multiple phases. Your prosthodontist outlines the full sequence, timeline and cost at the initial consultation so you have a clear picture before treatment begins.

Faqs
How long does a dental crown last?
Dental crowns typically last between 10 and 15 years with proper care, regular check-ups and good oral hygiene. Porcelain-fused-to-metal and all-ceramic crowns are the most commonly used options. Avoiding habits like grinding your teeth or biting very hard foods helps extend crown life.
Is a dental bridge permanent?
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration, meaning it is cemented in place and is not removed. It is not permanent in the sense that it may need replacement after 10 to 15 years, particularly if the supporting teeth or the bridge itself develops a problem. Your dentist checks the bridge at every routine visit.
Are dentures comfortable to wear?
New dentures require an adjustment period of a few weeks as your mouth adapts to the fit. Some soreness and difficulty eating or speaking in the early stage is normal. Your dentist adjusts the dentures at follow-up visits to improve the fit. Implant-supported dentures generally offer more stability than conventional dentures.
What is full mouth rehabilitation?
Full mouth rehabilitation is a coordinated dental treatment plan that addresses multiple damaged or missing teeth across both jaws. It may include crowns, bridges, implants, gum treatment, root canal and orthodontics depending on what each tooth needs. The goal is to restore proper chewing, improve bite stability and bring back a functional smile.
How much do dental crowns and bridges cost in Kochi?
The cost depends on the number of crowns or bridges needed, the material used and the clinical complexity of each case. Zirconia and porcelain crowns have different pricing. Your dentist provides a full cost estimate after the clinical check and X-ray. EMI options are available at all three clinics.
