Dental Crowns

Dental Crown in Heathmont

A dental crown is a custom-made cap placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are often used to protect a tooth after a root canal, support a large filling, or improve the aesthetics of a tooth that is discoloured or misshapen. Made from durable materials such as porcelain, metal, or a combination of both, crowns are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Our Process

The process for getting a dental crown typically involves two appointments. During the first visit, our dental team will prepare the affected tooth by reshaping it and taking impressions to create a custom crown. A temporary crown may be placed to protect the tooth while your permanent crown is being fabricated in a dental lab. At the second appointment, we will remove the temporary crown and securely place the permanent one, ensuring a proper fit and natural appearance. With proper care, dental crowns can last many years, helping to preserve your tooth and maintain your smile.

Why would I need a dental crown?

You may need a dental crown for several reasons. Crowns provide protection for weakened teeth due to decay, fractures, or extensive dental work, helping to prevent further damage.

They are commonly placed after root canal procedures to restore strength and protect the tooth from reinfection. Crowns can also restore broken or worn-down teeth, providing stability and allowing for comfortable chewing.

Additionally, they support large fillings in teeth that have lost significant structure and can enhance the aesthetics of discoloured or misshapen teeth. Lastly, crowns are essential in anchoring dental bridges, ensuring functionality and restoring your smile.

If you have a damaged or worn tooth, we’d love to help you restore it. Speak to our Heathmont dentists by booking an appointment today!
