Do you have a broken, decayed or a badly damaged tooth?
Have your teeth been weakened by a large filling or decay? Dental crowns are a great option for fixing heavily broken or damaged teeth. What’s more, with cutting edge dental technology ,these can be extremely lifelike and indistinguishable from natural teeth. They can be used for both cosmetic and functional situations.What is a crown?
A crown is a type of a dental restoration that covers a part of or the entire tooth. It helps to strengthen the tooth, improves its appearance and position as well as creating a natural and healthy look.A crown is usually made of porcelain, metal or a combination of both. In recent times, there has been a huge move towards all-ceramic crowns which offer much superior aesthetics to their metal based predecessors. A dental crown is sometimes referred to a dental cap.
Benefits of dental crowns
- Dental crowns can restore cracked, misshapen, broken or discoloured teeth.
- All-ceramic crowns are stain-resistant.
- All-ceramic crowns look natural and healthy as they closely mimic natural tooth structure.
- Dental crowns are durable and strong.
- Dental crowns are comfortable, stable and don’t irritate the gum line.
Why choose dental crowns?
At Currie & Gribben, we only use the best dental laboratories for our independent and membership plan patients. We chose them because their highly skilled technicians use only the most up-to-date technologies and materials. As a result, we can offer our patients a stronger and much more natural looking metal free crown.How long do crowns last?
Since porcelain does not stain or change shape, dental crowns can last an incredible amount of time once the patient follows the care suggested by the dentist. They are generally more robust than veneers but as there is generally more preparation to the tooth underneath, they are only used on teeth which are more heavily damaged. Like all restorations, crowns will need Since porcelain does not stain or change shape, dental crowns can last an incredible amount of time assuming the patient follows the care suggested by the dentist.
They are generally more robust than veneers but as there is generally a little more preparation to the tooth underneath, they are only used on teeth which are more heavily damaged. Like all restorations, crowns will need replacing over time. With proper care and maintenance, they will look their best for 10-15 years but can often last much longer.
What our patients are saying
I have been a patient with Mel Currie for just over 20 years. In that time I have presented with a number of problem dental issues. These have been treated successfully with a high degree of professional competence and always with patience and reassurance. I owe Mel a lot for my present good dental health
We have been patients of Mel Currie for over a decade and have at all times been totally satisfied with the service and treatment which has been conducted in a most professional and thorough manner. Mel has resolved many and varied complex problems during our time with him to our total satisfaction.
absolutely fabulous!!!
It was a joy to watch them interact with my son, who usually finds it hard to sit still.
no fear or worry and a happy boy going home.
Massive thanks to Mel and the team. After getting three crowns I can smile again with confidence. A great transformation, the crown colours and shape match my natural teeth perfectly. Highly recommended, thanks so much!
I absolutely dread getting work done on my teeth but need not have worried so much as Mel was very reassuring and did a fantastic job. Thank you so much!
Going to Mel for over six years now and am delighted with the service and would highly recommend Currie and Gribben to anyone.
I would like to thank Gemma and Kirsty , I've been going to this Dentist for a number of years and I can safely say these two girls are very professional at their jobs. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing you again.
Fantastic place. As a very nervous patient I avoided the dentist when I knew I needed to go. A friend told me about Mel and I would recommend him to anyone. He is the best and makes you feel at ease.
