Discover the Convenient and Effective Solution

Instant Results

With same-day crown technology, you can enjoy results in one visit. Using advanced CAD/CAM technology and our in-house dental laboratory, our dental team can design, fabricate and fit your crown in a single appointment.
This approach means the crown is fabricated and placed on the same day, reducing the need for temporary crowns or multiple visits.
Each crown is designed to restore the form and function of the affected tooth, while supporting long-term oral health.

Convenience at its Finest

Traditional dental crown procedures often involve multiple visits to the dentist, temporary crowns, and waiting periods while your permanent crown is fabricated in an off-site dental laboratory. This process can be time-consuming for some.
With same-day crowns, treatment is streamlined for your convenience. You could walk into our dental practice needing a dental crown and walk out with your permanent restoration in place, all in one visit. No more scheduling conflicts or prolonged discomfort.

Designed to Blend with Natural Teeth

Crowns are made from materials such as porcelain or resin, which can be selected to complement the surrounding teeth. These materials are designed to replicate qualities like colour, translucency, and surface texture, so the crown integrates with the overall appearance of the mouth.
Each crown is shaped and adjusted to fit the bite and restore function, while also supporting a consistent appearance across the dental arch.

Precision Fit

A well-fitted dental crown is essential for good hygiene, long-term success and comfort. Poorly fitting crowns can lead to complications such as decay, gum disease, and discomfort while chewing.
With precise digital impressions and CAD/CAM technology, we ensure that your crown fits your tooth with a high level of accuracy. This precision fit allows cleansability and promotes optimal oral health by preventing bacterial accumulation and preserving surrounding tooth structure.

Crowns Built to Last

Investing in dental crowns is an investment in oral health and overall well-being. You want a restoration that not only looks great but also stands the test of time. Crowns are crafted using durable materials such as porcelain, ceramic, or zirconia, ensuring longevity and resilience to biting and chewing forces.

Efficiency and Ease

Same day crowns, also known as chairside crowns or CEREC crowns, offer efficiency and convenience. Utilising advanced CAD/CAM technology, these crowns are fabricated right in our dental office during a single visit.

Traditional crowns involve a multi-step process. After the initial consultation and tooth preparation, impressions are taken and sent to a dental laboratory where the crown is fabricated. Patients then return for a second appointment to have the permanent crown placed.

Time-Tested Durability

Traditional crowns, typically made from materials such as porcelain-fused-to-metal or all-ceramic, have a long-standing reputation for durability and longevity. These crowns can withstand biting and chewing forces and are resistant to wear and staining.

Same day crowns, often crafted from high-quality ceramic materials like zirconia or porcelain, are also known for their durability. While advancements in technology have made dental crowns more robust than ever, some patients may still prefer the time-tested reliability of traditional crowns.

Right Choice for Your Smile

One advantage of laboratory-fabricated crowns is the ability to use materials that cannot be produced chairside with same-day technology. For example, gold and other high-strength alloys can be cast in a dental laboratory. These materials are sometimes recommended for patients with significant tooth wear, as they provide strong resistance to grinding forces and can be highly durable in functional areas such as molars.

The choice between porcelain or metallic crowns depends on individual clinical needs, bite forces, and long-term functional considerations, which your dentist will evaluate as part of the treatment planning process.

When is a Dental Crown Necessary?

Whether addressing structural issues, cosmetic concerns, or as part of restorative treatments, crowns offer versatile solutions that promote long-term oral health and well-being.

To Restore Tooth Structure: Dental crowns restore the structure of a tooth that has been damaged by decay, or trauma, If a tooth has lost a substantial portion a crown provides the necessary reinforcement to maintain functionality.
Following Root Canal Treatment: After undergoing root canal therapy to treat an infection or damage deep within the tooth, a dental crown is placed to protect the treated tooth and restore its strength. Root canal treatment can leave the tooth more susceptible to fractures and a crown provides support to prevent such occurrences.
To Strengthen Weak Teeth: Weak or compromised teeth, due to decay, fractures, or large fillings, require a dental crown. By encasing the tooth in a durable crown material such as porcelain or zirconia, its strength and resilience are enhanced, allowing it to withstand biting and chewing forces without further damage. This helps to prolong the lifespan of the tooth and avoid the need for extraction.

For Functional or Aesthetic Enhancement: Concealing stains, correcting misalignment, or reshaping a tooth for a more harmonious smile, crowns offer a versatile solution. With options such as porcelain or ceramic crowns that act like the natural appearance of teeth.
As Part of Dental Bridge or Implant Treatment: Dental crowns play a crucial role in restoring missing teeth through dental bridge or implant-supported restorations. Crowns are used to cap the abutment teeth or dental implants that serve as anchors for the bridge or prosthetic tooth.
To Protect Against Further Damage: In situations where a tooth is at risk of further damage or deterioration, such as a cracked or chipped tooth, a dental crown can provide coverage to prevent the worsening of the condition. By encapsulating the affected tooth, the crown acts as a barrier against external forces, bacteria, and other harmful agents, reducing the likelihood of complications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore common queries about our Dental Crowns.

Are there different types of dental crowns available?

Yes, there are various types of dental crowns including porcelain, ceramic, metal, and porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns. Each type has its own advantages and suitability depending on the individual's specific dental needs and preferences.

How long do dental crowns last?

The lifespan of a dental crown can vary depending on factors such as oral hygiene practices, biting and chewing forces, and the material used. On average, dental crowns can last between 5 to 15 years or even longer with proper care.

Can dental crowns be whitened like natural teeth?

While dental crowns themselves do not whiten like natural teeth, they are resistant to staining. However, if adjacent natural teeth become discoloured, professional teeth whitening treatments can be performed to achieve a uniform smile appearance.

Are dental crowns painful?

The dental crown procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia, so patients should not feel any pain during the process. Some mild discomfort or sensitivity may be experienced after the procedure, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relief medication. Individual experiences vary.

Can dental crowns be replaced?

Yes, dental crowns can be replaced if they become damaged, worn out, or if there are changes in the surrounding teeth or gum tissue. Your dentist will assess the condition of the crown and recommend whether replacement is necessary.

How do I take care of my dental crown?

Maintaining good oral hygiene practices, such as brushing twice daily, flossing, and attending regular dental check-ups, is essential for the longevity of dental crowns. Avoiding chewing hard objects and foods can also help prevent damage to the crown.
