Crowns
A crown is a type of dental restoration used to repair teeth that have been broken, weakened by decay or contain a very large filling.
Here is how it works:
​
-
A local anaesthetic will be administered
-
The tooth will be prepared with a drill.
-
An impression or a 3D scan are taken of your teeth.
-
A temporary restoration will be placed on the tooth to protect it.
-
The crown will be made in the dental laboratory to fit your tooth precisely and match the neighbouring teeth.
-
A few weeks later your crown will be fitted.
