I have recently finished my Invisalign treatment at Aurora Dental in Corsham and was very happy with the care I received throughout. Everyone is so friendly and I was always greeted with a warm welcome from Naomi, a receptionist there. If anyone has a phobia of dentists I would recommend this practice as they all may you feel at ease. My Invislign treatment was carried out by Richard who straight away during the initial consultation was extremely helpful and professional, which he continued to be throughout my treatment. Originally, my Invisalign treatment was going to take 4 months but my teeth were stubborn and I had to have more aligners. Richard reassured me that the treatment would continue until I was happy with the finished look. (After agreeing the price of Invisalign before treatment started there would be no further cost of continuing treatment until I was happy). Few months on I have now finished my treatment and can not thank the team at Aurora Dental in Corsham enough!

Never the most fun place to visit but these people make a visit to the dentist as good as it could possibly be! I have been a patient at this practice since it opened and the quality of the treatment has always been first class. The staff are friendly and professional and I have never struggled to get an appointment at a time to suit me, even in an emergency! In recent years I have needed to have fillings and extractions as well as the normal check ups and hygienist appointments and have no complaints whatsoever. If you were looking to register with a dentist I could always recommend this one!

A brilliant choice of a dentist, friendly, explains everything, takes their time. Highly recommend. The treatment of my son today was outstanding, he was really nervous and Francine worked her magic, making him very confident in her. Thank you

Crowns can help to save teeth that are damaged or decayed.

Designed to blend with natural teeth, crowns can restore a patient’s ability to chew and speak properly while also improving the appearance of their smile.

What is a crown?

Typically crafted from porcelain or metal (or a blend of both), crowns are basically a tooth-shaped cap. They are fitted over the remains of damaged or decayed teeth and can remedy problems caused by missing teeth.

What are the benefits of having a crown?

Crowns reinforce teeth that have been damaged in some way. They restore strength and function to such teeth while also improving aesthetics by restoring size and shape.

Does having a crown hurt?

For a crown to be fitted, your dentist will first have to prepare what remains of the damaged tooth. The tooth may need to be shaped, with a mould then taken to make sure the crown is a perfect fit. Local anaesthetic is used to minimise discomfort, with the procedure often described as feeling similar to having a filling.
