Why Shaw patients choose us for dental crowns

Shaw and Crompton patients often tell us the drive is worth it for a practice where they feel genuinely looked after. Our dentists welcome people from Shaw for routine care, for cosmetic treatments like whitening and bonding, and for bigger plans such as implants and dentures.

Dental crowns are a permanent, practical and cosmetic solution for damaged teeth. If we cannot repair your tooth with a simple filling or inlay, we will usually recommend a crown, which fits over the whole visible part of the tooth like a cap.

We offer gold and ceramic crowns. If you would prefer no metal at all, we can fit Procera or e.max all-ceramic crowns where they are suitable for your teeth.

Getting here from Shaw

The practice is about 6 miles from Shaw, around fifteen minutes by car through Newhey and Milnrow. Crowns usually take two visits, about two weeks apart.

Dental Crowns

When a crown is the right choice

  • Large fillings

    When a tooth is more filling than tooth, a crown holds it together.

  • After root canal

    Root-filled back teeth are more brittle, and a crown protects them from cracking.

  • Cracked or broken teeth

    A crown can rescue a tooth that has split or lost a large corner.

  • Appearance

    Badly discoloured or misshapen teeth can be transformed with a natural-looking crown.

What happens

Three calm steps

  1. Step 1: Prepare

    Your dentist gently shapes the tooth so the crown can fit over it.

  2. Step 2: Impression

    We take an impression, which goes to a dental laboratory to make your crown. You wear a temporary in the meantime.

  3. Step 3: Fit

    We check the fit, colour and bite, then cement your new crown in place with a special adhesive.
