Crowns and bridges

in Drayton

As a family dental practice in Drayton near Hellesdon and Taverham, we aim to improve the dental health and wellbeing of patients of all ages and this includes the way our mouth and teeth perform. When our mouths work well, we often take them for granted but the moment we have a problem, we realise just how vital a healthy mouth is for everything from eating, speaking and smiling, to our sense of wellbeing. Our modern approach to dentistry allows you to live your life to the full.

Teeth are precious commodities. They give our face its structure; they allow us to eat, whistle, speak, chew, smile and feel confident about ourselves. That’s why we will always try to save and restore your natural teeth. Treatment for restoring your mouth’s function includes crowns, bridges, fillings, inlays and onlays, and dentures.

Your crowns and bridges treatment journey

What happens when you need a crown or bridge?
Let’s take a look…

1. Your first appointment
After ensuring you are relaxed and comfortable, your dentist will first use a local anaesthetic to numb the area to ensure that you won’t feel a thing during your treatment. Your dentist will then remove any tooth decay using a dental drill… this might be noisy but we promise it won’t hurt at all. We will then take an impression or digital scan of your tooth and send it to our dental laboratory who will create your crown or bridge. In the meantime, we will place a temporary crown to protect your tooth.
2. Your second appointment
Once your crown or bridge has returned to us from the dental laboratory, you will come back so that your dentist can remove the temporary crown and permanently fit your new restoration.
3. Regular dental health reviews
It is important to attend your regular dental health reviews so that we can ensure the health of your new crown and check the rest of your teeth and gums.
