Crowns and Bridges

Dental Crowns and Bridges are part of Restorative Dentistry which aims at replacing or restoring missing or damaged teeth. The objective of restorative dentistry is to bring back your natural look and smile and safeguard you against future oral and dental health problems.

BOOK AN APPOINTMENT

Crowns

If you have a problem tooth that is broken or too large to fill, a crown can restore the foundations and appearance of the tooth. A crown is custom made by the Dentist to fit neatly over the original tooth. Were large decay or fillings have broken a tooth, a crown will promote strength. If you have more than one tooth missing, bridging may be required to fill the area.

Our Dentists may recommend a Crown to:

  • Replace a tooth that has suffered extensive damage and cannot be repaired with filling because there isn’t enough tooth remaining.
  • Cover discoloured or badly shaped teeth.
  • Protect a weak tooth against fracturing or further damage.
  • Replace a cracked or fractured tooth.
  • Cover a dental implant.
  • Cover a tooth that has undergone a treatment like root canal where the tooth is weakened by the procedure.

A broken or cracked tooth cannot be fixed with a filling, so the tooth needs to be protected with a crown (or cap). Crowns can be used in conjunction with implants to replace a lost tooth. Crowns can also protect a tooth that has already undergone extensive dental work.

Bridges

Bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth to close gaps between surrounding teeth and restore natural look and function of the teeth. When a tooth is lost and a gap is created, the surrounding teeth can move and tilt which can cause dental and oral issues like misaligned biting and gum disease.

The term ‘Bridge’ is used because it is attached to surrounding teeth to bridge the gap in between those teeth. The surrounding teeth — known as abutments — are utilised as anchors to which the bridge is attached. Often, crown are attached to the abutments and replacement teeth — known as pontics — are attached to the crowns.

Bridges are available in a choice of materials. Our dentists can assist you in choosing the right bridge type depending on the location, function and aesthetic of the missing tooth.

Crown and Bridging Procedure

The existing tooth may undergo an X-ray to assess any impairment before treatment. Your dentist will then re-shape the existing tooth in preparation for the new crown. A mould is then taken of the original tooth after it is shaped. The crown will take up to one or two weeks before it is ready, so a temporary crown will be affixed to the tooth before the final crown is fitted.

At Blue Spa Dental, we understand that some patients considering Dental Crowns and Bridges to cosmetically improve their look and smile may feel uneasy about attending at a dental clinic due to anxiety from presenting with missing teeth or the complex of the procedure. Our dentists are qualified professionals whos first consideration is to offer genuine and honest care to patients and deal with any unease or uncertainty the patient may be experiencing, we therefore give you the time and proper advice and explain the entire procedure. Most importantly, we perform procedures in a manner that provides for comfort and a feeling of ease using a high level of skill in a calming relaxing atmosphere.

I've been a patient here for more than 5 years and have been very happy with the care and service provided. Dr. Cartas and her team are always very accommodating, I'd recommend their Collins St clinic to anyone looking for a dentist in the CBD.

I have been a patient at this dentist for over 10 years and I even though I have moved away from Southbank where it was convenient I still do not mind the travel to see my usual Dentist. Very professional, quick and painless. I totally recommend getting your teeth cleaned, checked and explained to you with Blue Spa Dental. The girls here are very professional and friendly.

BEWARE! Only go here if you want terrible work done that won’t last!Got 2 front vaneers replaced and things started going wrong straight from the second appointment. My teeth were prepared for crowns instead of vaneers without concent. Wrong type of crowns then ordered. When right ones were eventually made the shape was wrong and they were too tight. I told dr cartas this but she said they’d settle in. They didn’t. Just 2 short years in, they cracked from pressure and fell out. They should last 10-15 years! One star is generous. I advised APRAH who agreed it was all done wrong, audited dr cartas and made her do courses. Save yourself the trouble. DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE.

Tried these guys out after my old dentist retired and had a great experience (well as great as visiting the dentist can be). The staff are very friendly and it's clear that all their patients love the place. I go to Collins St but I know they have two other locations which is handy.
