Changing your old unsightly crowns

Do your crowns that you had done many years ago no longer match the colour of any of your teeth?

This patient came to the Windsor Dental Practice in Leicester for a consultation regarding the replacement of her crowns. These crowns were placed over 20 years ago.  She was unhappy with their appearance and often felt embarrassed showing her teeth when picture were taken. From the picture above it can be seen that the dental crowns do appear a darker shade when compared to the other teeth in the mouth and also the margin around the gum appears a lot darker.

We at Windsor Dental discussed a number of options with the patient and came to the conclusion that we should start by replacing the crowns on the top left hand side ( UL3 and UL4) with all white porcelain crowns. The patient was more than happy to go ahead with treatment and this was the beautiful result that we achieved.
