Due to wear, accidents or tooth decay, a tooth may have to be replaced by a dental crown. A crown is a porcelain cap that we apply over a damaged tooth and is intended as a permanent replacement for the tooth. Thus restoring the tooth to its original shape, size and function. It can also be used as protection to prevent a fracture of a tooth. We always customize a crown to match the shape and colour of your other teeth.

Treatment

To make your crown fit properly, the dentist removes the outer portion of the tooth. Then an impression is made to provide an exact model for the crown.  This model is used to manufacture your crown using the latest techniques. Crowns are modelled and washed by hand in our dental laboratory by our porcelain technician Christa. The crowns are then pressed, finished and polished. You will get an temporary crown until the new crown is ready to be placed.

Cost

The cost for manufacturing a crown are budgeted in collaboration with your dentist since every patient has a unique set of teeth and individual wishes.
