Dental Crowns in Five Dock
Dental crowns are an excellent solution for restoring broken, chipped, or discoloured teeth and teeth that have undergone root canal treatment. At Smile Circle, we precisely craft crowns to match your natural teeth, enhancing your smile’s function and appearance.
Restore Your Natural Smile with Dental Crowns
A dental crown, often called a “cap,” is a custom-made cover that fits over your original tooth, offering protection and better stability. Crowns are used for teeth weakened by decay, severely worn, or from significant restorative procedures such as root canals. They are also the best choice for improving the aesthetic appearance of your smile.
You might need a dental crown if you:
- Have a tooth that is significantly cracked or broken
- Have a tooth that is discoloured or misshapen
- Have had a root canal treatment, as the tooth is more fragile and needs protection
- Need to replace a large filling when there isn’t enough tooth remaining to hold the filling
Steps to the Crown Placement Procedure
At your first visit, we prepare the tooth by reshaping and cleaning it to ensure a proper fit for the crown. Impressions and digital scans of the tooth are taken and sent to our dental lab, where your custom crown is created to match the colour, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth. Dr Shetty places a temporary crown to protect the tooth while your permanent appliance is being made, typically about two weeks.
Once the permanent crown is ready, you’ll return for a second appointment. We ensure the cap fits comfortably and blends seamlessly with your natural teeth before it is cemented in place, providing a functional bite and a beautiful look.
