Book TreatmentIf you have a substantially damaged or decayed tooth, a dental crown could be the perfect solution to restore your smile. Here at Stella Dental Suite in Stafford, we expertly fit crowns that act as a complete covering for the affected tooth.
During the procedure, the existing structure of your tooth is carefully prepared and shaped, allowing a custom-made crown to be securely bonded over it. This replicates both the natural function and appearance of your original tooth. While dental implants are an excellent option for missing teeth, crowns offer a highly effective and often more affordable restoration for damaged teeth, without requiring the implant to be directly screwed into the jawbone.

When considering a crown to restore your smile, the material truly matters. At Stella Dental Suite in Stafford, we exclusively use high-end Emax crowns – a superior restoration crafted from a single block of lithium disilicate material, rather than traditional metal or ceramic.
This unique construction means there are no weak points or joints in the replica tooth, making your Emax crown exceptionally durable and long-lasting. Furthermore, Emax crowns possess a slight translucency that beautifully mimics the natural appearance of your own teeth, ensuring a seamless and aesthetic result. For your complete peace of mind, all Emax crowns fitted at Stella Dental Suite come with a one-year guarantee.

Emax crowns stand out from other high-end capping options such as zirconium crowns by nature of their strength and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Cut from a single block of a tough material called lithium disilicate, Emax crowns have no joints, making them better equipped to withstand pressure than even zirconium crowns. Emax crowns present a very low risk of chipping or other forms of breakage.
In terms of aesthetics, zirconium crowns can’t be guaranteed to match the colour of your natural teeth and may be more visually detectable to others when they look at your smile. E-max crowns have a translucent quality, which mimics the appearance of your teeth, and customisable shade options to ensure your smile is exactly colour-matched.

Book TreatmentAnswer
A dental crown is a replica tooth, made to fit over the trimmed and shaped remainder of your existing tooth. The crown covers and caps the entire tooth, extending all the way down to the gum line and restoring shape, colour, and function.

Answer
Dental crowns can be used to treat a variety of needs. If you have undergone root canal treatment for a tooth infection, for example, your natural tooth can become brittle, and a crown might be required to protect the treated tooth from further damage. Crowns are also commonly placed for aesthetic purposes, covering stains which can’t be bleached or a tooth that has become far too badly damaged for less extensive restorations such as fillings. Crowns are also used to anchor bridges to adjacent teeth when replacing a missing tooth.
Answer
We will numb your mouth during the crown placement process to make sure you don’t feel any discomfort when your existing tooth is trimmed.
Answer
Emax crowns tend to last for at least 10 years, but it’s not uncommon for them to last much longer.
Answer
You can look after a dental crown just as you would a natural tooth – brush twice a day and floss daily, and make sure to check in for your dental hygiene visit every six months.
