Dental Crowns

At Dental Studio Mooroolbark, we understand that your smile is a vital part of who you are. That’s why we offer a range of dental crown services designed to restore the health, function, and beauty of your teeth. Whether you need a crown quickly or prefer a more traditional approach, our expert team is here to provide you with top-quality care and results.

Same-Day Dental Crowns: Convenience and Efficiency

In today’s fast-paced world, we know that your time is valuable. That’s why we offer same-day dental crowns, allowing you to get the restoration you need in just one visit. Using advanced technology, our skilled dentists can design, create, and place your custom crown all in a single appointment.

Benefits of Same-Day Crowns:

Immediate Results: Walk in with a damaged tooth and walk out with a fully restored smile in just a few hours.
Convenience: No need for multiple visits or temporary crowns.
Precision: State-of-the-art technology ensures a perfect fit and natural appearance.
Minimal Discomfort: Experience a streamlined process with reduced chair time and minimal discomfort.

Traditional Dental Crowns

If you prefer a more traditional approach, we also offer traditional dental crowns. This method involves crafting your crown using high-quality materials and taking precise impressions of your teeth to ensure a perfect fit, then sending these impressions off to a laboratory to make the crown.

Benefits of Traditional Crowns:

Durability: Time-tested techniques and materials ensure long-lasting results.
Customisation: Tailored to meet your specific needs, with a focus on both function and aesthetics. If silver or gold crowns are desired then a traditional crown is best for you.
Proven Track Record: Established as a reliable solution for various dental issues.

The Process:

Initial Consultation: We assess your tooth and discuss your options.
Preparation: The damaged tooth is prepared, and impressions or digital scans are taken.
Temporary Crown: A temporary crown is placed while your permanent crown is created.
Crown Fabrication: Your crown is custom-made using high-quality materials at a lab.
Final Placement: Once your permanent crown is ready, usually 2-3 weeks later, it is carefully fitted and adjusted for optimal comfort and function.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@tdsm.com.au if you cannot find an answer to your question.

How should I care for my crown?

Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing daily. Visit your dentist for regular check-ups to ensure the crown is in good condition. Avoid biting into hard objects or foods that could potentially damage the crown.

Are same-day crowns as durable as traditional crowns?

Yes, same-day crowns are made from high-quality materials that are durable and long-lasting. They provide the same level of function and strength as traditional crowns, with the added benefit of a faster, more streamlined process.

Is the crown procedure painful?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, so you should not feel pain. After the procedure, some mild discomfort or sensitivity is normal but usually resolves quickly.

What material is a crown made out of?

Dental crowns come in two main types: porcelain and metallic (gold or silver). Porcelain crowns are custom-matched to the color of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless blend with your smile. Our same-day crowns are crafted from porcelain for your convenience. However, if you prefer a gold or silver crown, the process requires two appointments. The first appointment involves preparing the tooth and placing a temporary crown. The second appointment is scheduled 2-3 weeks later to fit the final metallic crown, which is made by our lab during this interim period.
