Crowns

Crowns are advised when it is necessary to protect, strengthen and restore teeth. They may also be used to cover discoloured or misshapen teeth to improve the overall appearance of your smile.

Available in a range of materials, our crowns permanently sit over the entire visible surface of your existing tooth and are made to look as real as your own natural tooth.

The procedure takes two appointments. At the first appointment, we minimally shape the tooth and place a temporary crown. About 14 days later at your second appointment, we remove the temporary crown, place your new crown and check the fit and your bite.

The crown can last for many years if good oral hygiene is maintained, depending on the condition of the original tooth. Additional care should be taken to keep the crown and surrounding area clean. Your Durban Dental Centre dentist or dental hygienist will recommend an appropriate home care regime.

I have an irrational fear of needles and drills and so trips to the dentist for me are highly traumatic. The team at Durban Dental are incredibly understanding, and make it a lot more bearable.

I have recommended people in the past who have been extremely satisfied with the practice and treatment carried out by Ashley and the practice. I myself have always been impressed with the highly professional service given by both Ashly and Kate, who have treated me since they first started at the Durban Dental Centre. Which is quite a few of the 44 years I have attended the practice.
