Dental Crowns at Dental Implants Plus

Damaged, weakened, or discoloured teeth can impact your smile, chewing ability, and self-esteem. Dental crowns at Dental Implants Plus offer a versatile and long-lasting solution to restore your teeth’s functionality and aesthetics.

A Dental Crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its strength, shape, size, and appearance. Crowns can be made from various materials, each with its own advantages.

At Dental Implants Plus, we utilise advanced dental technology to create precise and long-lasting crowns. Our experienced dentists will carefully assess your needs and recommend the most suitable crown material and design. We utilise computer-aided design (CAD) for exceptional accuracy and a natural aesthetic.

Benefits of Dental Crowns

Restore Strength: Crowns reinforce damaged or cracked teeth, protecting them from further breakage and improving chewing ability.

Enhance Appearance: Crowns can dramatically improve the look of discolored, chipped, or misshapen teeth, creating a more confident smile.
Support Dental Implants: Crowns are placed on top of dental implants to complete the restoration and create a natural-looking tooth.
Improve Bite Alignment: Crowns can be used to correct minor misalignment issues, enhancing overall bite function.

Types of Dental Crowns at Dental Implants Plus:

Full Porcelain Crowns: Ideal for front teeth due to their natural, metal-free appearance. They are highly durable and resistant to chipping or staining.
Porcelain-on-Metal Crowns: A popular choice for molars and back teeth due to their exceptional strength and ability to withstand strong biting forces. The metal base provides durability, while the porcelain layer ensures a natural look.
Gold Crowns: Traditionally used for back teeth, gold crowns offer unmatched durability and longevity. They are a good option for patients with teeth requiring maximum strength.

Start Your Journey with this Process

Consultation: We discuss your concerns, examine your teeth, and recommend the appropriate crown type.
Tooth Preparation: A minimal amount of tooth enamel is removed to create space for the crown.
Impression and Temporary Crown: We take a precise impression of your tooth and create a temporary crown for you to wear while your permanent crown is crafted.
Crown Placement: Your custom-made crown is securely bonded to your tooth.
Review and Follow-Up: We ensure you’re happy with your new crown and schedule follow-up appointments.

Taking Care of Your Crowns

Taking care of your dental crowns is simple and important for their longevity. Treat them as you would your natural teeth by brushing after meals and before bedtime, paying attention to the gum line where bacteria can build up. Daily flossing helps remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth and crowns. Rinse with fluoride mouthwash before bed for added protection against decay. Don’t forget to schedule regular check-ups with your dentist at least once a year to ensure your crowns stay in great shape and your smile remains healthy and bright.
