Dental Crowns Spearwood
Strengthen and restore damaged teeth with dental crowns. Enjoy durable, natural-looking results crafted with precision by our experienced dentists.
If you have worn, broken, or weakened teeth, a dental crown is a reliable and long-lasting solution. Crowns can be placed on either front or back teeth to restore strength, function, and appearance. We use only superior, TGA-approved materials to ensure exceptional quality and durability.
What is a dental crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that completely covers your natural tooth, protecting it from further damage while restoring its shape and function. Crowns are recommended when teeth are compromised due to:
- Trauma or injury
- Tooth decay
- Wear over time
- Root canal treatment
- Placement over a dental implant
Crowns not only strengthen your tooth but also improve its appearance, giving you the freedom to eat and smile with confidence.
When a Dental Crown May Be Recommended
A crown may be the best solution if you have:
- A tooth weakened or cracked due to decay or trauma
- A tooth that has undergone root canal treatment
- Stained or misshapen teeth that cannot be improved with whitening
- A dental implant requiring a permanent restoration
Advantages of a dental crown
- Strength & Protection: Reinforces a weak or damaged tooth, preventing further issues.
- Aesthetic Improvement: Covers discoloured or misshapen teeth for a natural, attractive smile.
- Long-Lasting Results: With proper care, crowns can last for decades.
The dental crown procedure
Getting a crown typically involves two appointments:
First Visit – We examine your tooth, prepare it for the crown, and take impressions. A temporary crown will be placed while your permanent one is made in our dental laboratory.
Second Visit – We remove the temporary crown, fit your permanent one, and check the fit and bite before cementing it in place.
Caring for Your Dental Crown
Crowns require the same care as natural teeth. Brush and floss daily, avoid biting very hard foods, and attend regular dental check-ups to keep your crown and surrounding teeth healthy.

While crowns are designed as a long-term solution, they can experience wear over time. With proper care, they often last 20 years or more. If a crown does fail, it can usually be replaced easily. Maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding biting very hard foods will help extend its lifespan.
If you have missing, chipped, broken, or severely damaged teeth, you may be a good candidate for a crown. The best way to know for sure is to visit our practice for a consultation. We’ll assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and recommend a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs.
