Dental crowns for teeth (also known as dental caps) and bridges

help to repair more extensive problems

Crowns are a more extensive dental treatment where much of the tooth is covered. Crowns are usually made of porcelain but can also be gold.

Your dentist may recommend crowns for teeth to:

  • replace a large filling when there isn't enough tooth remaining to support another filling
  • protect a weak tooth from fracturing 
  • restore a fractured tooth 
  • cover a discoloured or poorly shaped tooth 
  • cover a tooth that has had  root canal treatment

Get in touch

For all enquiries, or to discuss your dental needs, please complete the form and we'll be in touch within 24 hours.
At Centre of Dental Excellence we offer the traditional method where your crown is made by a laboratory technician. Impressions are taken of your tooth which are then sent away to a technician to make your porcelain or gold crown, after which you'll return for a second appointment for the crown to be fitted.
If you have more extensive issues that require tooth removal, then a bridge can be fitted to fill the gap. A bridge is a false tooth or number of teeth which is fixed to the healthy teeth either side.
We provide premium dental crown services throughout the greater Wellington region, including Grenada North. Tawa, Newlands and Porirua.
