Dental Crowns Melbourne

What Is A Dental Crown?

A dental crown or a tooth crown is a custom-made small cap that is placed over a tooth to cover chips, cracks, damage, and other dental issues. The customised crown resembles your natural teeth in shape, colour, and texture. It not only covers to protect your tooth but also strengthens and provides reinforcement to your tooth.When the structure of your tooth begins to weaken due to decay, it increases the risk of gum disease and infection. Hence, it requires protection. In addition to covering your dental imperfections, the crown provides protection for your teeth.

Why Do You Need Dental Crowns?

Crowns can rectify many dental problems. The prosthesis can address the following issues:

• Restore severely damaged, decayed, or missing teeth
• Cover broken, chipped, gapped, and misaligned tooth
• Reinforce weakened tooth structure
• Support teeth that have undergone extensive dental work
• Hide or cover teeth with heavy discolouration and beyond the scope of whitening procedures

At The Smile Designer, we use crowns to anchor a dental bridge that provides additional support and gives stable results.

Our Procedure Of Getting A Tooth Crown

The tooth crown procedure typically involves two visits to our dental practice. During the initial visit, we’ll examine your mouth, take x-rays and digital images, and assess the bone quality. If necessary, we may reshape your teeth and place a temporary crown while a custom prosthetic is being made. Once ready, we’ll replace the temporary crown with a permanent one, which usually takes 2-3 weeks to prepare at our dental lab. Our team of professionals ensures a seamless and comfortable experience throughout the tooth crown procedure.

• Step1: After your custom crown is ready in our lab, we will schedule another dental visit for you. We will place the custom crown after removing the temporary crown from your tooth. We will check to ensure that the prosthesis accurately fits in the row by size, shape, and colour.
• Step2: If you are satisfied with the new crown, we will cement it to provide you with a permanent result. The dental crown cost in Melbourne depends mainly on what type of crown you require and whether you opt for the same-day crown. We will give you the details of an approximate cost before commencing our treatment.

We also perform same day crowns with our Cerec In House Milling units. We will guide you as to the procedure that is right for you. 

Tooth Crown Cost Melbourne

Generally, the cost of a crown tooth procedure in Melbourne can range from $1,900 to $2,500 or more per tooth. However, if you have private health insurance with dental coverage, you may be eligible for a rebate that could reduce your out-of-pocket expenses. It’s important to check with your insurance provider to understand the specifics of your coverage. At our practice, we also offer flexible payment plans to make the cost of a crown tooth procedure more manageable for our patients.
