Crowns

A crown is an artificial restoration that fits over the remaining part of a prepared tooth, making it strong and giving it the shape of a natural tooth.

Worn down, cracked or broken teeth can be entirely covered to aesthetically enhance, strengthen and produce tooth stability. A crown could be used for a number of other reasons, for instance you may have discoloured fillings and would like to improve the appearance of the tooth or you may have had a root filling which will need a crown to protect it. Also it may help hold a bridge or denture firmly in place.

Older crowns can sometimes look lifeless when compared to more modern materials and a black line may be visible at the crown/tooth junction, which looks even worse if the gum has also receded. Our modern crowns are strong and durable and ‘metal free' and almost indistinguishable from natural teeth.

Due to the use of CEREC technology we are able to construct and fit the crown the same day. The results are fantastic.
