Dental crowns at Pocock Family Dental are custom-made restorations that cover the entire visible portion of a tooth, providing strength, protection, and aesthetic improvement. They are essential for restoring teeth that are weakened, fractured, heavily decayed, or have undergone root canal therapy. Dr. Andy Pocock will prepare the tooth and take precise impressions, which are then sent to a dental lab for fabrication. We prioritize using high-quality materials to ensure durability and a natural appearance.
At Pocock Family Dental, we offer a variety of crown materials to meet each patient's needs:
- All Porcelain Crowns: All Porcelain crowns are highly aesthetic, meticulously designed to mimic the natural translucency of teeth. This unique characteristic allows light to penetrate and reflect off the crown in a similar way to natural enamel, creating a lifelike appearance. Their exceptional aesthetic qualities make them particularly ideal for restoring front teeth, where a natural-looking smile is paramount.
- BruxZir: Known for its exceptional strength and durability, BruxZir is a solid zirconia material, a type of ceramic renowned for its resistance to fracture and wear. This robust quality makes it an ideal choice for patients who grind or clench their teeth (bruxism), providing long-lasting protection against the destructive forces of these habits.
- All Ceramic: These crowns encompass a diverse range of ceramic materials, including traditional porcelain, as well as newer advancements in dental ceramics. All these materials share the benefits of excellent aesthetics, closely mimicking natural tooth appearance, and biocompatibility, meaning they are well-tolerated by the body and minimize the risk of allergic reactions or tissue irritation.
- Zirconia: Zirconia is a strong and durable ceramic material, meticulously engineered to provide both exceptional strength and remarkable aesthetics. This unique combination of properties makes it a highly versatile option, suitable for restoring both the highly visible front teeth, where aesthetics are paramount, and the robust back teeth, where strength and durability are essential for chewing.
All of our dental crowns are meticulously crafted in a professional dental lab by highly skilled technicians who specialize in creating custom dental restorations. Their expertise in materials selection, shade matching, and anatomical detail ensures a precise fit and optimal aesthetics, resulting in a crown that is both functional and natural-looking.
