Local to You, Not Just “In Manhattan”
A crown or bridge case usually means at least two visits a couple of weeks apart — a prep appointment and a final placement once the restoration returns from the lab — plus the occasional adjustment visit if the bite needs fine-tuning. Patients near Lincoln Center, Lincoln Square, and along Riverside Drive choose to keep that whole sequence local rather than losing time in transit for each step, especially if a temporary crown between visits needs a quick check.

Am I a Candidate?
You should have healthy gums and enough remaining healthy tooth structure to support a crown; a bridge is appropriate when there's a gap from one or more missing teeth between otherwise healthy teeth. See the full FAQ on our Crown and Bridges page.
When Is a Crown the Right Call — and When Should It Be a Bridge?
A crown is the right fix when a tooth is still present but too damaged, cracked, or decayed for a filling to hold up — it caps and protects what remains of the natural tooth. A bridge comes into play once a tooth is actually missing: it replaces the gap with a false tooth anchored to crowns placed on the healthy teeth on either side (or, in some cases, to a dental implant instead of natural teeth). Left unaddressed, a missing tooth allows neighboring teeth to drift into the space over time, which is part of why timing matters. Whichever applies to your situation, we'll confirm it with an exam and X-rays rather than guessing from a description over the phone. See the full Crown and Bridges page for the complete FAQ and cost breakdown.

FAQ: Crown and Bridges on the Upper West Side (UWS)
Dr. Boris Zusin handles your prep, fitting, and final placement at our West End Avenue office; the crown or bridge itself is fabricated by a dental lab and returned to us to place. Every visit you're actually present for happens here, close to Lincoln Center and the rest of the Upper West Side.
Typically two — a prep visit where the tooth is shaped and a temporary is placed, and a final visit a couple of weeks later once the permanent restoration is back from the lab. Being nearby makes both visits, and any adjustment in between, easy to fit into a normal week.
A single crown typically runs about $1,200–$2,500; a traditional bridge is roughly $2,500–$6,000 depending on how many teeth are involved. See our full crown and bridge cost breakdown for what drives the number.
Yes — an exam and X-rays are the only way to know whether a crown, a bridge, or a more conservative filling is the right call for a specific tooth. See the full FAQ on our Crown and Bridges page.
A crown caps and protects a single damaged tooth that's still there; a bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth to the crowns on either side of the gap. If a tooth is missing altogether, a bridge (or an implant) is the option, not a crown.
