Dental Crowns in Townsville
Support Your Teeth With Same-Day Crowns, Inlays, And Onlays
CEREC technology allows us to design and create bespoke crowns, inlays, and onlays while you wait.
A dental crown will replace extensively broken down teeth and prevent them from breaking any further. A crown will protect, strengthen, and brace a tooth. It will hold it together and allow many more years of stress-free dentistry.
Strategic teeth such as your first molars that have had extensive amalgam dentistry are at risk of collapsing and breaking the tooth. An amalgam is a very strong restoration, but in an extensively restored tooth, will lead to failure. Hence, placement of a crown over the tooth will preserve vital tooth structure and prevent failure.
Often these procedures can be completed in one appointment with the use of our CEREC machine. This allows chair side fabrication of the ceramic crown and bonding to the tooth in one visit. The CEREC machine allows us to restore otherwise normal fillings with inlays and onlays, which can preserve the tooth longer than a conventional tooth-coloured resin filling. Again, this is complete in one appointment.
