Porcelain crowns and bridges

WHY HAVE DENTAL CROWNS?

When a tooth is cracked, decayed, or damaged, a crown may need to be fitted onto the tooth.
Crowns can help to whiten, reshape, and realign existing teeth.

For instance:

• You may have discoloured fillings and would like to improve the appearance of the tooth.
• You may have had a root filling which will need a crown to protect it.
• It may be needed to help hold a bridge or denture firmly in place.

 

Our Dental Crown Procedure

Dental Crown treatment is arranged in the following steps according to the results of the consultation:

During your first visit the dentist will prepare the teeth to provide an easy fit for the crowns.
An impression of your teeth is taken which is used to construct your crown.
A temporary crown is then fitted onto the teeth.
On your next visit the dentist removes the temporary crown and fits the permanent crown onto the teeth.
