Dental crowns (or caps as they are sometimes known) can be used to replace the top part of a tooth which has become damaged or weakened, provided the root is still relatively strong and healthy.

A crown fits over the existing tooth, helping to strengthen it and make it look like a whole, natural tooth. It also protects the remaining tooth from further decay or damage.

Crowns are created in a dental laboratory, using the very latest ceramic material by skilled craftsmen, to give the combination of a perfect fit and completely natural appearance. They are designed using a mould from your mouth, ensuring that your bite remains perfect. Porcelain crowns can be fully matched to your existing teeth but crowns can also be made in gold alloy or glass.

If you have an old crown which you are not entirely happy with, it may well be worth speaking to us about it – you’d be surprised at just what a difference a new one could make!

Frequently Asked Questions

Dental crowns, also known as dental caps, are tooth-shaped restorations that cover damaged or decayed teeth. They are typically needed when a tooth has extensive decay, fracture, or weakened structure, or after a root canal treatment to protect the tooth. Crowns restore the tooth’s appearance, strength, and functionality.

The lifespan of dental crowns can vary depending on various factors, such as oral hygiene practices, biting forces, and the material used. On average, dental crowns can last between 10 and 15 years. However, with proper care and regular dental check-ups, they can last even longer.

There are several types of dental crowns available, including porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns, all-ceramic crowns, zirconia crowns, and metal crowns. PFM crowns combine metal and porcelain for strength and aesthetics, while all-ceramic and zirconia crowns offer excellent aesthetics. Metal crowns, typically made of gold or silver alloys, are highly durable.

The process of getting dental crowns is generally not painful. Before the crown placement, the dentist administers local anesthesia to numb the area, ensuring a comfortable procedure. Some patients may experience mild sensitivity or discomfort after the procedure, but it usually subsides within a few days.
