Crowns are a cover or a cap which provide reshaping of a cracked or broken tooth and strengthen tooth weakened by decay. They can also be used to secure a bridgeor another dental implant. They can be metallic, ceramic, or a combination of the two.
Preparation for the treatment includes removing decay and then adjusting the contours to facilitate the crown fitting. The impression taken of the tooth enables our clinic to create a custom-made crown. The colour can be closely matched to your remaining teeth to give it a natural appearance.
In certain damage cases, alternative treatments may be unsuitable. In such a situation, crowns provide a good solution. A crown can be fitted over the tooth remnant, restoring the health and appearance of the tooth while protecting against bacteria.
