Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About
Dental Crowns

Patients who need dental crowns may have broken, fractured, or cracked teeth; large dental fillings; severe dental decay; a missing tooth; or teeth that are too small or have been badly worn down. A tooth that has undergone root canal therapy is also highly recommended to be crowned. Please note that it’s important that the pulp of your tooth does not have an active infection, and that you still have enough natural tooth structure for the crowns to fit securely.

Additionally, if any other oral health issues like decay or infection are present, those must be addressed first before fitting the crown.

  • Help restore your beautiful smile.
    Crowns for teeth in Craigieburn are a good way to restore your tooth while also improving its appearance. When fitted over an existing natural tooth, it can help address discolouration or misshaping of the mouth.

  • Help relieve discomfort and sensitivity.
    Dental crowns can provide a protective covering for teeth that have lost enamel or have been damaged. The dental crown helps protect what remains and reduces sensitivity.

  • They can be used for an extended time.
    Dental crowns are made of durable materials that can withstand trauma from chewing, biting, or grinding food. They can be used for a long period with proper care.

  • Function like natural teeth.
    If you have lost or damaged teeth, tooth crowns can help. Crowns for teeth in Craigieburn should look like your natural tooth and function the same.
Getting a dental crown shouldn’t be painful. Most people experience some discomfort during the procedure, but that can be managed and will depend on the individual’s pain threshold. Your dentist may use local anesthesia to minimise discomfort.

First, your dentist will start by examining your affected tooth and then removing a minimal amount of enamel around your tooth to make room for the dental crown material. Once they have prepared the area, they’ll take impressions using either putty-like material or digital scanners to closely get the shape and mould of your prepared tooth.

Your dentist will send your mould to a dental laboratory where your dental crown will be fabricated. You might receive a temporary crown while you wait for the customised one, which should match your other teeth, so they blend in seamlessly.

Dental crowns typically last 20 years or more, depending on the material used and how well they are taken care of. With proper care, a zirconia crown can easily last 10-15 years, porcelain fused to metal crown lasts from 5-15 years, lithium disilicate crowns last at least 5-15 years and gold crowns for 10 years.
Avoid eating or drinking anything sticky and hard for the first 24 to 48 hours after getting a new crown. After this time, you can do all of these things as you normally would, without any restrictions. But you still have to be mindful about what you eat as hard and sticky food can still damage your crown.
The cost of a dental crown depends on the type of material you choose, the complexity of your particular case, and your location. Ceramic crowns range from $1,800-$2,000, while a full metal crown starts at $2,100. Zirconia and gold crowns may have additional fees applicable. We strongly suggest you book a dental check-up appointment with Royal Dental Spa to get an estimate of the cost of dental crowns in Craigieburn.
