Crowns

Crowns are advised when it is necessary to protect, strengthen and restore teeth. They may also be used to cover discoloured or misshapen teeth to improve the overall appearance of your smile.

Available in a range of materials, our crowns permanently sit over the entire visible surface of your existing tooth and are made to look as real as your own natural tooth.

The procedure takes two appointments. At the first appointment, we minimally shape the tooth and place a temporary crown. About 14 days later at your second appointment, we remove the temporary crown, place your new crown and check the fit and your bite.

The crown can last for many years if good oral hygiene is maintained, depending on the condition of the original tooth. Additional care should be taken to keep the crown and surrounding area clean. Your Oakmead Dental Care dentist or dental hygienist will recommend an appropriate home care regime.

Had a 4th appointment with Paul, this time to remove a front tooth and fitting of denture. He has, in all appointments with him, been extremely informative of options available to me and put me very much at ease.

Care and consideration by all members of staff. Excellent work by the dentist in extracting tooth with no main or harm to myself, and duly giving all the information pre, during, and post extraction.

The staff here are really lovely and looked after my wife who has a fear of dental procedures (odontophobia - had to look it up!). With their help and the dentist's excellent work she got through it! Thanks Oakmead!
