What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover damaged or weakened teeth, restoring their functionality, strength and appearance — a durable, natural-looking solution to protect teeth and enhance oral health.

Types of Dental Crowns

Ceramic Crowns

Highly durable, natural-looking, and ideal for visible teeth.

Porcelain Crowns

Excellent for aesthetics, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Metal Crowns

Excellent strength and longevity, suitable for less visible teeth.

Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal

A durable metal core covered in porcelain, combining strength with aesthetics.

When Are Dental Crowns Needed?

Crowns are recommended to repair cracked, broken or decayed teeth, to support bridges or cover dental implants, and to protect teeth after root canal treatment. They’re also used in cosmetic dentistry to cover discoloured or misshapen teeth, as an alternative to veneers or composite bonding.

The Dental Crown Process

Preparation & Temporary Crown

We prepare the tooth by removing decay and shaping it, then fit a temporary crown to protect it while the permanent crown is being created.

Fitting the Permanent Crown

The permanent crown is attached with special dental cement, for a comfortable fit, long-term durability and a natural appearance.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Brush and floss regularly, avoid biting hard objects, and keep up with routine dental check-ups. The longevity of your crown depends on good oral hygiene and the health of the original tooth — regular assessments help catch potential issues early.
