Dental Crowns
Dental crowns and bridges have been used in dentistry for many years. They are still known to offer the most ideal solution in many situations.
Dental Crowns – Crowns are often used if there has been extensive structural damage to your tooth, your tooth has had root canal treatment or as the final restoration following the placement of a dental implant.
Dental crowns fully encase a tooth; this is why they are often referred to as a cap for the tooth. Crowns can be made from porcelain, porcelain with a gold base or gold alone.
Depending on the area for restoration, we will explain the different materials available and the benefits they can offer. Our goal is to offer the most appropriate long-term treatment option so that your health and function is maintained.
Crowns are constructed following a detailed preparation and impression taking process. The information collected from this appointment is then sent to our specialist dental technician who will carefully and precisely fabricate your crown.
Approximately two weeks later, your custom-made crown will be fitted. You will be able to function as you would normally. Surprisingly your crown needs no extra attention, just your normal daily oral care routine.
