In our Avondale Dental office, we are pleased to offer CEREC same-day dental crowns. In most cases, this means no waiting weeks for your restoration to arrive and no temporary caps that may not fit as well as they should.
Dental crowns are tooth covers that fit over a prepared tooth. They are customised in shade and colour to complement your unrestored teeth. A dental crown is indistinguishable from neighbouring teeth.
Let’s explore a few reasons you might need (or want) a dental crown in Avondale, Auckland.
#1 To Stabilise a Weak Tooth
Following root canal infection or tooth trauma, you may need a dental crown to restore the tooth to function. Without a crown, you risk loss or the need for extraction. A dental crown can save your tooth.
#2 When Tooth Decay Is Advanced
When a cavity grows large and threatens your tooth’s structure, your dentist may recommend a dental crown following treatment. The tooth crown is used instead of a tooth-coloured filling.
#3 When Bridge Teeth Need Anchoring
A dental bridge is an artificial tooth or teeth with a crown on either end. The crowns cap healthy teeth, supporting the bridge and restoring your smile.
#4 The Final Step in Dental Implant Treatment
A single dental implant is an artificial tooth root capped with a dental crown. Capping the artificial tooth root is the final step in single-implant dentistry. The custom tooth crown stands in for the lost tooth.
#5 As Part of Cosmetic Dentistry
Some patients choose a dental crown to conceal tooth imperfections like chips and discolouration. It can also hide shape abnormalities and lengthen short teeth, giving you a level and symmetrical bite surface.
