DENTAL CROWNS In PERTH

Do you want to protect your teeth from further deterioration?

Dental Crowns in Perth at Perth Dental Rooms

Dental crowns are used to cover and protect damaged, weakened, or heavily restored teeth. A dental assessment is required to determine whether a crown is suitable for your tooth.

At Perth Dental Rooms, our dentists assess the condition of your tooth and discuss whether a dental crown is suitable for your needs. We explain the available materials, treatment process, possible risks, alternatives, and expected costs before treatment begins.

CROWNS AND DENTAL BRIDGES

Dental bridges are fixed, non-removable tooth replacement options that may be suitable for replacing one or more missing teeth.

In a traditional dental bridge, crowns are placed on the supporting teeth on either side of the gap. These crowns support one or more artificial teeth that fill the space.

A dental assessment is required to determine whether a bridge is suitable for your oral health needs.

THE DENTAL CROWN PROCESS

If you have a badly decayed tooth or a tooth that’s sustained physical trauma, getting a standard dental crown generally takes two appointments.

The process includes:

Local anaesthetic to numb the area.
Taking an impression of the mouth.
Sending the impression to a dental lab for fabrication.
Placing a temporary crown.
Removal of temporary crown and cleaning the tooth.
Placement of permanent crown.
Bonding the crown to the prepared tooth using dental cement.
Traditional dentures or bridges to replace a few teeth or all the teeth.
Dental implants – to support a crown to replace a single tooth, or to anchor a denture or bridge if more teeth are missing.

SAME-DAY DENTAL CROWNS

Traditional dental crown treatment may require more than one appointment. For suitable patients, Perth Dental Rooms offers CEREC crowns that may be designed, prepared and fitted during a single visit.

CEREC uses digital scanning, computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing technology to create a ceramic crown. This process may reduce the need for traditional dental impressions and a temporary crown.

Suitability, treatment time and the number of appointments depend on the condition of the tooth and your individual treatment needs.

BENEFITS OF DENTAL CROWNS

Dental crowns can help restore damaged teeth, help protect against infection reaching the tooth nerves, and support the remaining healthy tooth structure.

Other benefits of dental crowns include:

• Helping protect a weakened or damaged tooth
• Supporting bite and chewing function
• Restoring the tooth’s shape and structure
• Improving the appearance of selected teeth

The lifespan of a dental crown varies depending on the material, remaining tooth structure, bite, oral habits, and ongoing dental care.
