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.

Excellent personal care.

Friendly and helpful advice for future care of my teeth

17th August 2025

I've had bad dental treatment in the past, and am as a result a rather anxious patient. Family members recommended Oakmead to me, and I am very glad I have been treated there. The whole surgery is hugely relaxing, from the reception staff to the dental nurse and dentist. All are friendly and reassuring, which has made what I expected to be a very stressful process actually calm and pleasant. The dentist very clearly and calmly explained how they could help me. The treatment is going very well, and I am sure my new dentures will be great. I was reassured from the first visit, when I went away with a treatment plan with costs clearly set out. The cost, although not trivial, is actually a little less than I was expecting.

From the welcome by the reception team, Jill the hygienist and Andy the dentist the whole experience was fantastic. What a team. They are friendly welcoming and caring. I can’t fault the service at all.

Everyone at the surgery is always very friendly and helpful

Paul took the time to consider how to reinsert my implant after it fell out (fitted somewhere else). He came up with a plan, and I left my tooth with him so that he could work on it in advance of my appointment. His plan worked with no complications and I am very happy with the result. In fact it feels more comfortable than it did before!

Everyone was kind, thoughtful and Effcient

I saw Paul Cassidy for an extraction. My previous dentist had insisted I should have sedation and had told me he might leave in part of the root of the tooth. This made me anxious. Paul put me at ease from the start, explained everything in detail and was really gentle. I am so glad I was referred to him by Gabriella.

I feel confident with the treatment and staff.They explain precedures/treatment well.

11th August 2025

Very impressed by the whole dental team. From booking the appointment to the treatment from Jill, the whole process was seamless. You can tell by the friendliness and attitude of the whole team that it must be a great place to work. I have always been nervous about a trip to the dentist but found myself weirdly relaxed at Oakmead!

The treatment received felt personal and professional. The dentist was efficient and gentle, and listened to my concerns and then addressed them satisfactorily. He adjusted my partial denture and made sure it was comfortable.

Debbie was excellent and gave me everything I needed to improve my dental health and did so with such a friendly manner.

5th August 2025

The Hygenist was, as always, careful to explain everything. She always listens to my concerns and adjusts things to suit me. Altogether an excellent experience.

Very friendly and the treatment is carried out with great care and gentleness

Mr Hopkins listened carefully to my concerns, explained clearly the causes and outlined the possible choices. He answered my questions to help me make an informed decision, and made suggestions as to how I can improve things myself.
