The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of complications associated with crowns and bridges and the effect of service duration on the prevalence of complications among a population of Batterjee Dental Clinic. A total of 98 patients, with 44 FPD and 54 single crowns were selected. Questionnaire had questions pertained to the period, nature of complaint, and type of materials used. Clinical examination was performed. Statistical analysis was done using a Statistical Package for Social Science. TheResults of this study showed that the percentage of the failures were Periodontal disease (51%), Gingival bleeding (46.9%), Open margins (43%), Caries (41%), Shade mismatch (42%), Occlusal wear of the opposing tooth (20.4%) prostheses loose (13%) and porcelain or abutment fracture (12.2%). The duration of service was found to influence most of the assessed complications especially periodontal disease, Shade mismatch and Occlusal wear.
