Crowns

Crowns are advised when it is necessary to protect, strengthen and restore teeth. They may also be used to cover discoloured or misshapen teeth to improve the overall appearance of your smile.

Available in a range of materials, our crowns permanently sit over the entire visible surface of your existing tooth and are made to look as real as your own natural tooth.

The procedure takes two appointments. At the first appointment, we minimally shape the tooth and place a temporary crown. About 14 days later at your second appointment, we remove the temporary crown, place your new crown and check the fit and your bite.

The crown can last for many years if good oral hygiene is maintained, depending on the condition of the original tooth. Additional care should be taken to keep the crown and surrounding area clean. Your Temple Square Dental dentist or dental hygienist will recommend an appropriate home care regime.

Very friendly staff, and dentist that had a great sense of humour, and made you feel more like a friend than a patient.

I’m a denplan patient always feel my needs are put first and if I have an emergency they fit me in. Aaron especially is amazing and does the very best he can for me. As well as Becky she is always so friendly and Sarah too. Thank you.

Everyone is lovely in the surgery. Brilliant interpersonal skills by all. Feel so clean after seeing lucie the hygienist! then saw James - he did a thorough check and then listened to my request for a broken tooth to be built up - as his next patient hadn't turned up he did it then and there. Highly delighted with the result!

After much consultation with Aaron, we agreed the best approach was a 4 teeth bridge removal and an extraction of a previously root filled tooth that, after 25 years had had enough! As always, Aaron took plenty of time to carefully explain the options and pros & cons of each course of treatment. During the procedure Aaron kept me fully informed at each stage and, whilst not pleasant, it was significantly less traumatic than I had imagined. His care and support has never been in doubt and I have every confidence in him as my Dentist.

I’ve received excellent care at Temple Square Dental since joining. I’d previously had a bad experience with another dental practice (not at Temple Square), so I was quite nervous at first. Dr Aaron Landau (Dentist) completely changed how I feel about going to the dentist. He’s highly skilled, incredibly gentle, and explains everything with great care and patience. He made me feel completely at ease throughout my visits and major root canal treatment, and any discomfort during the procedure was very minimal, with hardly any pain at all. Natalie Brabin (Dental Nurse) was so kind, reassuring, and highly professional, creating a calm and comfortable atmosphere from start to finish. Sarah Jones (Treatment Co-ordinator) was also fantastic, highly efficient and professional. She made the whole process smooth and stress-free, ensuring everything was clearly explained and well organised. The best dentist I’ve ever had and highly recommended.
