Get Stunning Crowns and Custom Veneers in Southampton
Restore and Strengthen Your Smile with Crowns and Veneers
Whether you have a tooth that is worn, cracked or discoloured, dental crowns and veneers can restore both the strength and appearance of your smile. At Acorn Dental Health in Southampton, we offer natural-looking crowns and veneers that are carefully matched to the shade and shape of your surrounding teeth for a seamless result.
Crowns are often used to protect and strengthen a tooth that has been weakened by decay, injury or a large filling, while veneers are a popular choice for improving the appearance of chipped, stained or slightly misaligned teeth. Both options are custom made to fit your smile and can make a significant difference to your confidence.
Many patients considering crowns and veneers are also interested in dental implants or teeth whitening as part of a wider smile improvement plan. Our experienced dentists will discuss all your options at your consultation, and you can find more information about costs on our fees page, with finance options available if you would like to spread the cost.
What to Expect from Your Crown or Veneer Treatment
Your treatment usually begins with a thorough consultation, where we will discuss your goals and check whether crowns or veneers are the right option for you. We will then gently prepare the tooth and take precise impressions, which are used to create your custom restoration in a dental laboratory.
While your permanent crown or veneer is being made, you may be given a temporary restoration to protect the tooth. Once your new crown or veneer is ready, we will carefully check the fit, shape and colour before it is permanently bonded in place, leaving you with a comfortable and natural-looking result.
Is a Crown or Veneer Right for You?
Crowns and veneers can be a good option if you have a tooth that is cracked, heavily filled, discoloured or slightly out of shape, and they can also help protect a tooth after root canal treatment. Your dentist will assess your individual needs and explain honestly whether crowns, veneers, or an alternative treatment such as teeth whitening would best suit your goals.
As with any dental treatment, good oral hygiene and regular check-ups are important to help your crowns or veneers last well. We are always happy to answer any questions you may have, and our team can talk you through the process, timescales and costs at your consultation, with details available on our fees page.
If you would like to discuss your smile goals with one of our dentists, we would be delighted to help you feel confident in your decision.
