Frequently Asked Questions
Is a crown better than an onlay or veneer?
It depends on the case. Crowns are for full protection, onlays are more conservative, and veneers are for cosmetic enhancement. We’ll assess and recommend the best option during your consultation.
Are these treatments painful?
No. We use local anaesthesia and gentle techniques. You may experience mild sensitivity for a few days after the procedure.
How do I take care of crowns, veneers or onlays?
Maintain good oral hygiene, avoid chewing hard objects, and visit us regularly for check-ups. These restorations can last over a decade with care.
Are any of these Medisave claimable?
Crowns, veneers, and onlays are not Medisave claimable unless done as part of a surgical or implant procedure. We’ll walk you through your payment options.
Can veneers be used to fix crooked teeth?
Yes, in mild cases. Veneers can improve alignment visually, but orthodontics may be needed for severe crowding.
