We offer crowns that are secure and durable.
When damage to teeth is too extensive to be repaired by fillings, crowns are the next best option. When your crown is fitted, it’ll become the outer layer of your tooth, protecting any of the original damaged enamel.
You may receive a crown when:
- Replacing a large filling if a tooth is too damaged for repair.
- Protecting a weak tooth from breaking.
- Restoring a broken tooth.
- Attaching a bridge to your jawline.
- Covering a dental implant.
- Covering a poorly shaped or badly discoloured tooth.
- Covering a tooth which has had root canal treatment.
At Fleckney Dental, we are proud CEREC® Dentists in Fleckney, Leicester.
CEREC is a sophisticated CAD/CAM system for the production of all ceramic crowns and inlays/onlays for front and back teeth.
The traditional way for us to provide you with a new crown is for us to take an impression of your ‘prepared’ tooth and then send this off to our dental laboratory for our technician to make a new crown for you. This usually takes around two weeks and requires you to wear a temporary crown whilst your new crown is being made.
Now, in addition to having your new smile in just one day, there are also many other benefits to this treatment:
- No temporary restorations are needed.
- No impressions required.
- Aesthetic – made to match the shape and colour of your existing tooth.
- Long lasting – based on over 25 years of research and millions of restorations placed worldwide.
