Porcelain Crowns can help you re-create your beautiful smile whilst still aiding with the repair and structure of any tooth. At Life Smiles Dental Surgery we are excited to offer this Cosmetic Dentistry procedure to patients allowing them to re-gain the natural appearance and function of their teeth.

Covering the entire area of the tooth, Porcelain Crowns provide many benefits to patients. The advantages are both structural and aesthetic. Increased durability, strength and stability are just a few of the structural components patients experience. Porcelain Crowns are also aesthetically pleasing, reflecting light the same as a natural tooth. They are the same texture, translucency and colour as natural teeth.

A Porcelain Crown is necessary when a tooth starts to crack, break, is decayed or aesthetically lacking. This may be the case, due to numerous factors influencing the patient. Some of the influences may include;

• Fillings
• Tooth Decay
• Ageing of teeth
• Grinding of teeth
• Improper bite

Porcelain Crowns can be shaped to match the natural, existing tooth or altered and repositioned to change the appearance of your smile. The first step in undergoing a Porcelain Crown procedure is to make an impression of the affected tooth. A Porcelain Crown is made to these exact specifications. This Porcelain Crown is then permanently fastened to the tooth.
