Why do I need a dental crown?

Dentists recommend dental crowns for various reasons, and some patients choose crowns as part of their cosmetic makeover.

If your dentist recommends a dental crown, here are a few reasons why:

  • You have a weak or treated tooth in need of stability.
  • You have deep tooth decay (treated) that puts the tooth at risk for breakage.
  • You have a short tooth that is compromising your bite.
  • You need a single dental implant, which includes a crown.
  • You need a dental bridge with accompanying crowns.

Dental crowns can also hide cosmetic issues, including chips, cracks, discolouration, shape abnormalities and more.

The Dental Crown Process

For general tooth crowning, we start with an assessment of the tooth. Then, we shape the tooth, take impressions and provide a temporary restoration until your custom tooth crown is ready for placement.

Before your Katoomba dentist secures the crown, we ensure the colour and shape match your teeth. We also evaluate the function of your new restoration.

For Crowns and Bridges, We Welcome Your Call

If you need a dental crown in Katoomba, we encourage you to contact our dental team to book an evaluation with the dentist.
