Give Your Teeth the Royal Treatment with New Dental Crowns

For a high quality, permanent solution to fix broken, chipped or damaged teeth, consider dental crowns.

 

Dental crowns can greatly improve the overall look of your smile, giving you the dream smile you’ve always wanted. They are a very popular component of cosmetic dentistry, with a high reputation because of their durability and strength.

 

As well as improving the appearance, shape or alignment of teeth, crowns both strengthen and reinforce the existing tooth, helping to save your natural teeth underneath.

 

Let’s look closer at the use of dental crowns to improve your smile.

 

When are Dental Crowns Recommended?

Your dentist may advise crowns as an option for you, to:

• Replace a large filling when there isn’t enough tooth remaining
• Protect a weak tooth from fracturing
• Restore a fractured tooth
• Attach a bridge
• Cover a dental implant
• Cover a discoloured or poorly shaped tooth
• Cover a tooth that has had root canal treatment

Are Dental Crowns Permanent?

Yes, dental crowns provide you with a permanent solution, being fixed prosthetic devices that cannot be taken out. A crown is used to entirely cover or ‘cap’ a damaged tooth, both strengthening it and improving its appearance.

Your porcelain crown will be cemented securely on top of your natural existing tooth, so you don’t need to worry about crowns coming off or having to take them out at any time.

 

What are Dental Crowns Made of?

All dental crowns are very long lasting and durable, making them an excellent long term option.

 

Crowns are generally made from with porcelain or ceramic, which can be matched to the colour of your natural teeth. Other materials for dental crowns can include gold and metal alloys – these materials are generally recommended for back teeth, as they are stronger than porcelain.

Porcelain bonded to a metal shell may also be used, providing a solution that is both strong and attractive.
