DENTAL CROWNS

Crowns are a fixed restoration fitted to the remaining part of a prepared tooth or, placed on a Dental Implant they are an ideal way to rebuild a damaged tooth.

Crowns can also be used to reshape and help realign uneven and slightly crooked teeth and can dramatically improve the appearance of a tooth that has been badly discoloured by fillings. Crowns add a healthy and vibrant smile.

FULL PORCELAIN CROWNS

Full Porcelain Crowns are particularly recommended for front teeth replacement and Cosmetic Dentistry as they are metal free and have the same translucence as normal teeth giving a completely natural look to the replacement tooth/teeth. Full Porcelain Crowns also ensure there will be no problem with the appearance of a fine dark line of metal at the base of the crown that can sometimes happen if gum recession occurs and the patient has Porcelain on Metal Crowns.

ZIRCONIUM CROWNS - FULL PORCELAIN

(Construction)
A plaster model is made from the impression taken of the prepared tooth. The model is scanned and a frame is designed using a computer. The milling machine cuts the frame out from a zirconium disc. Porcelain layers are built up on the frame and detail colouring is added.
