Dental Crowns Melbourne

Dental Crown Melbourne

Restore strength, function, and beauty with high-quality dental crowns that Melbourne patients trust. At SIA Dental, we provide durable and natural-looking dental crowns to protect damaged teeth and enhance your smile. Whether you’re dealing with a cracked, worn-down, or severely decayed tooth, a custom dental crown can restore it with long-term comfort and confidence.

What is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are commonly used when a tooth is broken, severely worn down, or requires additional support after a large filling or root canal.

Materials Used:

We use only high-quality materials, handcrafted in trusted local Australian labs to ensure each crown is strong, precise, and beautifully matched to your natural teeth.

Why Choose Dental Crowns at SIA Dental?

At SIA Dental, we pride ourselves on creating dental crowns that our Melbourne patients count on for strength and aesthetics. Our experienced team uses advanced diagnostic tools, precision techniques, and high-grade materials to design crowns tailored to your individual dental needs.

Whether you’re restoring one tooth or multiple, our focus is always on long-lasting quality and patient comfort.

The Benefits of Dental Crowns

Protect Damaged Teeth

A dental crown reinforces teeth that have been weakened by decay, large fillings, or fractures. It provides a protective barrier to prevent further damage or infection.

Restore Aesthetic Appeal

Crowns are designed to match the shape and colour of your natural teeth, making them an excellent option for improving the appearance of discoloured, misshapen, or worn-down teeth.

Long-Lasting Durability

Made from durable materials like zirconia and porcelain, our crowns can last 10 to 15 years or more with proper care—offering a reliable, long-term solution for tooth restoration.

Impressions: We take a precise mould of your prepared tooth and send it to our local lab.
Shade Matching: The crown is colour-matched to your natural teeth.
Temporary Crown: A temporary crown is placed to protect your tooth during fabrication.

Second Visit: Crown Fitting

Temporary removal: The temporary crown is carefully removed.
Final crown placement: You’ll test the fit and look of your crown before it is permanently cemented.
Bite & comfort check: We ensure proper alignment and comfort before completing the procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Long Does the Dental Crown Procedure Take?

Most dental crown procedures require two visits over 1 to 2 weeks: First Appointment (60–90 minutes): The tooth is prepared by removing decay or shaping it to fit the crown. Impressions are taken, and a temporary crown is placed. Second Appointment (30–60 minutes): The permanent crown is fitted, adjusted for bite and comfort, and then cemented in place.

Do Dental Crowns Require Special Maintenance, Or Are They Permanent?

No special tools are needed, but you should maintain good oral hygiene. Regular brushing, flossing, and check-ups will help your crown last longer. While not permanent, dental crowns typically last 10 to 15 years, or even longer with proper care.

Can a Crowned Tooth Get a Cavity?

Yes. While the crown itself won’t decay, the underlying natural tooth structure is still susceptible to cavities. Proper brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits are essential to prevent decay around the crown edges.

Can Dental Crowns Be Used for Front Teeth?

Yes. We offer aesthetic materials like porcelain and zirconia that blend seamlessly with front teeth for a natural appearance.
