Crowns…..fit for a King or a Queen

Crowns have been available for many decades. However, the newest generation of crowns are highly superior and more aesthetically natural than most people are aware.

Often, the only experience the general public have of crowns is seeing the dark edges of other peoples older style crowns. Dark edges should be a thing of the past. By using new advances in ceramic technology, crowns can be made which blend in with an individual’s natural teeth. These are the crowns which your friends cannot see.

A crown is a full cover which fits over the tooth after it has been reduced in size to accept the crown. There are many styles of crowns available for different situations and we will advise you on the best one for you. We make realistic crowns in a variety of styles and materials to suit different circumstances. A crown can also change the size, shape or colour of the tooth, but it is more destructive of the natural tooth structure and would therefore usually be used instead of a veneer where more strength is required in the finished product, or where the tooth is badly damaged and there is not enough tooth remaining to provide a veneer.

When the teeth have been prepared an impression or scan is taken. The impression does not need to cover your whole mouth making this a reasonably comfortable procedure. Temporary crowns will be provided, looking perfectly aesthetic, whilst our technicians skillfully produce your crowns. The fitting appointment is usually shorter and will generally be around two weeks later and yet again, a comfortable experience.

Please do not be concerned if you have old crowns which need to be removed. This is often the worry that prevents people from making the decision to have new crowns provided. Crown removal is simple, quick and painless.

We can make you beautiful crowns to give you a smile that you will be proud of.
