What a crown is

A crown is a cap that covers a tooth. It is used when a tooth is cracked, worn, or has a big filling. It covers the whole tooth so you can chew on it again.

The usual way takes two visits

Most crowns take two visits. At the first visit the tooth is shaped and a mould is taken. You get a temporary crown. Then you wait a few weeks while a lab makes the real one. Then you come back to have it fitted.

That is two trips. If someone has to drive you, it is two trips for them too.

How we do it here

We use CEREC. We scan your tooth. There is no mould. We make the crown here in about 15 to 20 minutes. Then we fit it. You go home with the real crown, not a temporary one.

One visit means one trip, not two.

Please note

Not every tooth can be done in one visit. Dr Suaan will tell you before anything starts.

Who this helps most

You are not just booking for you. You might be booking for your mum or dad. One visit matters most if someone has to drive you here, or if you have to take time off work.

What happens first

Book online, or call 08 8387 1733. Come in and meet us. Dr Suaan looks at the tooth and tells you if it can be done in one visit. We give you the plan and the price in writing before we start.

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
