Crowns

With a crown, we can repair and restore teeth that have become damaged in some way.

Crowns are one of the most common ways we repair damaged teeth. They can also be used in other treatments to ensure their success, such as after some root canal treatments and in applying a bridge.

Reasons for a crown application

Tooth damaged through wear and tear.
A damaged filling has caused the tooth to fail.
A discoloured tooth or filling.
To complete a root canal treatment.
Applying a bridge to replace a missing tooth or teeth.

FAQs

What are crowns made of?

Traditionally, crowns have usually been made of a precious metal such as gold. With modern innovations, we can use materials such as porcelain or composite resin, which fit in much more naturally with the rest of the mouth, allowing for a much more subtle finish.

How long is the treatment time?

Crowns are usually placed over the course of two appointments.

How is a crown applied?

During the first appointment, we’ll prepare the tooth to be repaired, remove any damage and take intra-oral scans. These will then be sent off to a dental laboratory, where your crown will be made for you, and we’ll place a temporary crown for use in the meantime.

Once the personal crown is ready, we’ll apply it under local anaesthetic, ensuring the fit, bite, and comfort are correct for you.

Is the treatment painful?

We’ll use a local anaesthetic during both appointments so you can be comfortable throughout the treatment.

Always get honest and fantastic service from Matt and the team, been at the practice for around 15-20 years and cannot recommend them enough, I would, say make & keep your appointments or cancel with plenty of notice as they are a very busy practice because they are so good....5*

I recently had several implants done at Rothwell Dental Care. I was very nervous at the start of the treatment but was put at ease by the way everything was explained and the patience of the dentist when I bombarded him with all my questions and concerns. The treatment plan was undertaken in a well organised way and the final outcome is brilliant. I would recommend anyone to have their implant surgery at this practice.

Rothwell Dental Care is a clean, modern practise that has wonderful staff. I have been going to Rothwell Dental Care for many years now and the team are amazing. They work really hard to give you the best results and smile! I have had a few emergency issues with my teeth and they have been able to give me an appointment swiftly to help ease my pain and anxiety. Like a lot of people, I have worried about visiting the dentist in the past, but at Rothwell Dental Care I am made to feel at ease. You are given honest feedback on the health and hygiene of your teeth and work is only done when necessary. My daughter is also a patient here (first visit when she was 3) and she loves her visits to the dentist and is always over the moon to get stickers and a warm welcome by all. My overall experiences at Rothwell Dental Care have always been fantastic. You can feel safe in their hands.

I have been an NHS patient with this practise for at least ten years. The quality of dental care I have received has been outstanding. The customer care from the whole team has been excellent too. I have always been treated with empathy and kindness. The receptionist is always quick to answer my calls and always does her best to accommodate any appointment issues. When I've had toothache, she has always provided me with a rapid appointment and shown genuine empathy. I've never been made to feel a nuisance. Gareth (the dentist) is, without exception, always polite, patient, cheerful, friendly, and professional. He always takes his time to explain what, why, and how. I was previously a very nervous patient and have always detested going to the dentist. Now, due to the diligence, empathy, care, friendliness, and professionalism of this practice, I am much more relaxed because I am completely confident I will receive the best care possible. I would have no hesitation in recommending this practice and, in particular, Gareth as a superb dental practitioner.Well done all!

Awful customer service! Had my first appointment and was going to have new Invisalign retainers and whitening. Whilst I was there I asked about registering my 2 little boys, the dentist said they could be registered as nhs patients so I booked an appointment for a Monday morning. When it came to the appointment we were all very poorly with covid so I had to cancel the appointment that morning. I called to apologise and rearrange and they said they couldn’t as the dentist had said they’d now have to come as private patients. I asked if there was any chance they could keep them on as nhs under the circumstances, the reception told me to have a word with the dentist when I came in. I went there this morning for my appointment and explained what had happened. The dentist was so condescending and arrogant. He said that they were ‘now at full nhs capacity’ and that they’d have to pay £30 each! He explained all this with a massive smile on his face, awful! Absolutely disgusting when they are 1 and 3 years old!

I have been a patient here literally since I was born (or since I was old enough for my first ever check up, anyway!). That's just over 25 years. The surgery has received 25 years worth of income out of me. I've never missed an appointment, never required much work, and Matthew has been with me through lots throughout my dental life. One example is referring me for surgery on my mouth when I was around 12 years old (I had a complication with a tooth that wouldn't grow), and taking care of me in the aftermath, post-op.I rang up this morning to make an appointment for a yearly checkup to be greeted by the usual (notoriously rude) receptionist. After taking my details, she informed me that I can't make an appointment because I've being struck off their list. The reason? I missed one single appointment a couple of months ago. One. Single. Appointment. In 25 years.I don't remember making the appointment as I'm usually just told that my teeth are in good condition and to book an appointment in 12 months time. I received no reminder about it and was told they are unable to do reminders because it's too big of a job. It's 2023. We're not asking you to call up every single person before their appointment to remind them (tbh, I think receiving a call from that receptionist would be enough to ruin most people's day), but we're asking you to maybe get with the times and implement email/text reminders. I promise, it's not that difficult.I've been a patient at this surgery for longer than Matthew himself has worked there, and much before any of the other employees probably even knew the place existed. They struck me off just like that.I was informed that I could go private if I wanted, and they'd have probably have gotten me in this afternoon I had. This statement in itself shows that they care very little for us "poor folk". The receptionist gets a kick out of crossing us off her precious list, and all they want is to be able to suck more money out of us.Overall, and as probably one of the most experienced people to have reviewed this place; don't go. It's not worth the hassle.The receptionist's have always been rude for as long as I can remember.Try somewhere else.I personally managed to get in somewhere else after just a few phone calls. I even got somewhere closer, that's not an hours drive away for me like these were.

Would highly recommend Matthew. Went today with my little boy (2.5 years), he walked out and said “I love that dentist”. Matthew was great with him, checked his bunny’s teeth first and interacted so nicely with him that he clearly felt at ease and happily let him look at all his teeth.Matthew has always been a great dentist with me too and makes sure you get the best care.

I have been at this dentist for over nine years and have experienced the best dental care continuously. I have had my teeth straightened and whitening done here and would highly recommend. The day before flying out to Mexico for my wedding I developed an abscess and super swollen face, Matthew went above and beyond to sort the pain out and relieve the swelling for my big day and even stayed behind outside surgery opening hours! I am always welcomed with a smile. My four year old now loves going to the dentist and feel real comfortable.

I have used this practice since I was little, it is always a first class service. Friendly staff with utmost professionalism. Gareth Spiers corrected my teeth with a six month brace program, and now I couldn't be happier. Would highly recommend.

I was dissatisfied with the treatment I received from a dental practice in York and moved to the Rothwell dental practice last year. I cannot speak too highly of the treatment I have received. Dr Millican is friendly, efficient and caring. I have also found the cost of treatment to be considerably cheaper. Cannot recommend this practice enough. First class treatment and first class service.

I worked in the dental business for nine years and Mathew Millican's reputation was second to none. Totally professional in his treatment of a patient but also friendly and you can put your trust in him. A very genuine person and a top-class dentist. All the staff are friendly and very professional, I highly recommend the whole practise.
