Restorative Dentistry
DENTAL CROWNS
Most dentistry looks like dentistry. Our goal is to provide dentistry that is undetectable. We replace existing crowns and fillings with restorations that look and feel like your natural teeth.
Where damage to a person’s teeth is extreme, and apparently beyond repair, we can use porcelain crowns to make the smile appear “as new”.
This is an extremely reliable technique for repairing the most severe of dental problems, even permanently
replacing missing teeth to offer a complete smile and a functional bite.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO FIT A DENTAL CROWN?
WHAT ARE THE CAPABILITIES OF CROWNS?
A dental crown is a very reliable solution for major dental problems caused through accidents
diseases or wear and tear.
Major problems can usually be corrected using these techniques.
Material used in these repairs is either high-grade porcelain, or porcelain bonded to gold.
A higher strength of the porcelain and gold materials is recommended to treat the most serious of dental problems.
Where accidental damage has occurred, resulting in lost teeth, or where teeth have broken
away through excessive wear or as the result of old fillings breaking, crowns and/or bridges
can be used as a long-term solution.
Many people have unexplained pain from filled back teeth, which is usually due to hairline cracks
in the chewing part of the tooth.
Placing crowns on these teeth relieves the pain and allows a return of full dental function for these teeth.
In front teeth, older fillings can both weaken the teeth and cause “appearance” problems due to staining or chipping.
Porcelain crowns and bridges are suitable in cases where porcelain veneers are not.
In teeth with root canal fillings, crowns can prevent breakage.
