Crowns
What is a Crown?
At Sedgemead House Dental Practice, We Protect Your Smile
Here at Sedgemead House Dental Practice, we understand the importance of preserving your natural smile. A dental crown, also known as a cap, serves as a protective covering for damaged teeth, restoring their shape, strength, and appearance.
Our experienced team recommends dental crowns to address various dental concerns, including protecting weak teeth, restoring broken or worn-down teeth, covering dental implants, securing dental bridges, or sometimes enhancing the look of misshapen or discolored teeth.
With a focus on personalized care, we offer crowns made from high-quality materials such as porcelain, E-Max, gold, other metals, or a combination tailored to your specific needs. Your oral health is our priority, and we invite you to consult with our dedicated dentists to determine the best crown option for maintaining your healthy, beautiful smile.
Trust Sedgemead House Dental Practice to safeguard your dental health and rejuvenate your confident smile.
Crown Procedure
At Sedgemead House, we offer crown procedures to help restore the shape, size, and strength of a tooth while improving its overall appearance.
Procedure Overview:
Consultation: During your initial visit, our experienced dentist will examine your tooth and discuss the crown procedure with you. X-rays may be taken to assess the tooth's condition.
Preparation: The tooth receiving the crown will be numbed if needed, and any decay or damage will be removed. The tooth will then be shaped to accommodate the crown.
Impression: An impression of the prepared tooth will be taken to ensure the custom crown fits perfectly.
Temporary Crown: While the final crown is being fabricated, a temporary crown will be placed to protect the tooth.
Placement: Once the custom crown is ready, you will return for its placement. Our dentist will ensure the crown fits correctly and matches the natural color of your teeth.
Final Adjustments: Any necessary adjustments will be made to ensure comfort and proper bite alignment.
If you are considering a crown procedure or have any questions regarding the process, feel free to contact us to schedule a consultation with our skilled dental team.
Please note that this overview is a general guide, and individual treatment plans may vary based on each patient's unique needs.
