Crowns

Treatment overview‍

Dental crowns, also known as tooth crowns or caps, serve as protective covers placed over damaged teeth. These restorations help protect weakened teeth while restoring their shape, function, and appearance. At Dental Holistix, we use high-quality ceramic crowns to ensure both strength and a natural-looking result.

How dental crowns work‍

Dental crowns are custom-made to fit over your tooth, providing a protective layer. The process begins by reshaping the damaged tooth and taking a digital scan to create an accurate 3D model. A crown is then designed to match the size, shape, and colour of your natural teeth. Once ready, the crown is cemented into place, restoring the tooth’s function and appearance.

Key benefits

• Durable materials – Our crowns are made from high-quality ceramics designed to last for many years.
• Natural look – Ceramic crowns match the colour and translucency of your natural teeth, providing a seamless appearance.
• Long-term protection – Crowns reinforce and protect weakened teeth, helping prevent further damage or decay.

Who is a good candidate?‍

Dental crowns are ideal for patients with:

• Damaged or weakened teeth: Crowns protect teeth that have suffered from significant decay, wear, or injury.
• Root canal treatments: A crown is often recommended after a root canal to reinforce the treated tooth.
• Aesthetic concerns: Crowns can be used to improve the appearance of discoloured or misshapen teeth.

At Dental Holistix, we deliver crowns that are as beautiful as they are durable, using the latest technology and unmatched attention to detail

Treatment timeline‍

The process of getting a dental crown typically takes 1-2 appointments. Same-day crowns are available using advanced digital scanning and in-clinic milling technology. However, their suitability depends on each patient’s unique dental needs. Factors like the complexity of the case, material requirements, preparation needs, or the need for healing time may make a traditional crown a better option in some situations. Our goal is always to provide the best solution for your long-term dental health.

Cost and payment options‍

The cost of dental crowns varies depending on the material used and the complexity of the case. However, a crown for a tooth starts at $1815, this includes the tooth prep required for the crown. Contact us for personalised pricing and information about our flexible financing options.

FAQs

How long do dental crowns last?
With proper care, dental crowns can last 15 years or more. Regular check-ups and good oral hygiene will help ensure their longevity.

Are dental crowns painful?
The procedure is usually done under local anaesthetic, so you should not feel any pain. You may experience some minor discomfort after the anaesthetic wears off, but this should subside quickly.

Can a dental crown be replaced?
Yes, if a crown wears down or becomes damaged, it can be replaced. Regular check-ups will allow us to monitor its condition.
