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 cannot fault any of the team at Durban Dental. Recently moving to the area and having to change dental practices after 25 years was quite a big deal, however, myself and 3 boys have all been made to feel so at ease and welcome, Jacob in particular is so good with the children, especially my one year old who is slightly reluctant to open his mouth for his appointment but Jacob is so calm and patient! Reception staff always so welcoming and helpful too especially Marie & Heather :-) Thank you Durban Dental!

I've been with the practice since 1988 and my sons and brother have also been under their exceptional care. Many staff changes through the years and never less than excellent, whether front of house or clinical. Never a fan of going to the dentist but a necessity and the staff make it bearable.
