Crowns

What is a Crown?

A crown is a covering designed and manufactured by our skilled technician in a laboratory specifically to fit your tooth

Why do I need a Crown?

Once a tooth has been broken or damaged beyond a certain point, placing a crown helps to give better function, appearance, and lifespan compared to a filling.

How does it work?

Anaesthetic

Our dental professional will give you a pain-free numbing injection (optional).

Reshaping

We will then remove the damaged parts, clean the toother and reshape it.

Core

We may add to your tooth to make the final shape just right.

Impression

Next we take a putty impression to send to our laboratory technician.

Temporising

Finally we will fit a temporary crown and take a few shades for the design of your new tooth.

Fit

2 weeks later we will see you to remove the temporary crown and fit the final crown.

What to expect?

Initial sensitivity
Initial difference in your bite
Average lifespan of 5-10 years
