What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its strength, size, shape and appearance.
Crowns cover the visible part of the tooth above the gum line, protecting it from further damage and helping it function normally again.
Dental crowns are commonly used after root treatment, to strengthen teeth with large fillings, or to improve the appearance of worn or discoloured teeth.
What Are Dental Crowns Used For?
Dental crowns restore both strength and confidence in a range of situations, including:
- Cracked, chipped or broken teeth
- Teeth weakened by decay
- Large fillings that have compromised the tooth’s structure
- Protection after root canal treatment
- Worn-down teeth caused by grinding
- Teeth that are uneven, worn, or heavily discoloured

Been at the practice for over 20 years. The staff have always been exceptional and have always put you at ease. They have been accommodating and tried to work around shifts and life to fit you in. When the practice changed ownership a few years ago naturally you feel sceptical, however I can honestly say the service and new staff that came to work … More with the existing staff are just as top notch. It's not dirt cheap, but you get what you pay for and by using this practice you'll be like me and still have all your own teeth after 40 odd years!!

Dental Crowns FAQ
What Are Dental Crowns?
They are tooth-shaped caps that are placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns can be made from various materials, such as porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination of these materials.
Why Do I Need A Tooth Crown?
You may need a crown if you have a tooth that is severely decayed, cracked, broken, or weakened due to a large filling or root canal treatment. A crown can protect your tooth from further damage and restore its function and appearance.
What Is The Procedure?
The process of getting a tooth crown typically involves two appointments. During the first appointment, your dentist will prepare your tooth by removing any decay or damaged areas, shaping it to fit the crown, and taking impressions of your teeth. These impressions are sent to a dental lab, where your custom-made crown is created. At the second appointment, your dentist will bond the crown to your tooth using a special adhesive.
Are They Painful?
It should not be painful, as the area will be numbed with a local anaesthetic. However, you may experience some discomfort or sensitivity in the days following the procedure, which can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.
How Long Do They Last?
The lifespan of a dental crown can vary depending on several factors, such as the type of material used, your oral hygiene habits, and the amount of wear and tear on the crown. With proper care and maintenance, a crown can last for many years, even up to 15 years or more.
How Do I Take Care Of My Tooth Crown?
To keep your dental crown in good condition, it is important to practice good oral hygiene habits, such as brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and visiting your dentist regularly for cleanings and check-ups. You should also avoid chewing on hard or sticky foods, as this can damage the crown.
