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 Hest Bank Dental Care dentist or dental hygienist will recommend an appropriate home care regime.

I was nhs but during covid my dentist was just going to rip my root out preventing a crown repair. I had to find a private dentist. I came across hest bank (now yrs as a patient ) and within a few hours had my crown replaced although at that time it was expensive. Ive stayed with them as a private patient...finding all the team happy friendly and very helpful but professional when it comes to their specific work my teeth have never been so good with the work they have done ...I thought pricey but googling other practices there's not much in price difference in procedures. I need a Friday appointment very accommodating or my dentist works late on a Thursday evening id like to finish by thanking everyone at hest bank .my teeth are very happy

I really love how I was welcomed and treated, I had a severe toothache which was causing me a sleepless night . I searched online and I found their website. I took their number and called that morning on that same day, they booked me in for treatment . The dentist really did well because on that same day , I had already seen a dentist who tried to extract my tooth but couldn’t. I really appreciate and I am grateful.

My previous dental surgery experience wasn’t great and having experienced the service at Hest Bank it surpassed my expectations considerably. Understanding was show from the initial appointment and the appointments were easy to make and not having to wait several months for an available date was perfect

My wife (Brenda) has been a patient of Hest Bank Dental and has always been very happy with the professionalism and care given by all the staff. But special mention goes to Arnie for his kind and caring manner when she is in the chair. Thank you.
