Dental Crown
Considered protection for your tooth. A fit for your smile.
EXPERIENCE · CARE
Every tooth has different needs.
A crown covers a tooth that needs restoration or protection after assessment. Your dentist considers the remaining structure, your bite and suitable materials, including whether a crown is needed after root canal treatment.
Restorability
Ask what this means for your own assessment and treatment plan.
Material and design
Understand the alternatives and what the proposed approach can and cannot do.
Fit and follow-up
Agree on the care instructions and how to contact the team.
ILLUSTRATION · SMILE INNThe details that matter to your decision.
Discuss preparation, impressions or scans, fitting and cementation. Ask about any temporary restoration, shade, fit and care. Restoring an existing tooth and replacing a missing tooth require different assessments.
Prepare your questions ↓A clear path, at your pace.
A framework for the discussion; your actual visits depend on the treatment plan.
Assessment
Explain your concern, relevant history and any previous treatment. Your dentist decides which examinations or records are needed.
Options and plan
Discuss suitable alternatives, expectations, stages and a written estimate before agreeing to treatment.
Care and review
Keep your instructions and follow-up plan. Ask what should prompt you to contact the team before your next visit.
Questions worth asking.
How do I know if this service is suitable?
A dental examination is needed to understand the cause of your concern and compare appropriate options. An article or photograph cannot decide your treatment.
What should I bring to the consultation?
Bring relevant records, a list of medicines and health conditions, and your main questions. Confirm appointment details and consultation fees with the team.
How are the cost and number of visits decided?
They depend on the assessment and the agreed scope of care. Ask for a written breakdown of the treatment stages, included services and follow-up.
What should I ask before treatment?
Discuss preparation, impressions or scans, fitting and cementation. Ask about any temporary restoration, shade, fit and care. Restoring an existing tooth and replacing a missing tooth require different assessments.
