A crown, also known as a dental cap, is a common cosmetic treatment which completely covers a damaged tooth or dental implant and aims to help preserve its health and integrity.

Crowns can be used to treat a range of issues, including to repair badly broken or weathered teeth, to maintain the tooth’s structure, or to improve the cosmetic appearance of a patient’s smile.

Crowns are custom-made to adhere perfectly to a patient’s natural tooth. Firstly, impressions are taken from the tooth to be treated. The crown is then made in a laboratory, and can be produced with various materials, most often porcelain.

Crowns are a reliable and permanent solution to a range of common dental problems. To determine if a crown is right for you, your dentist will be able to examine and advise you. There may be alternative treatments which could be more suitable for you.

A great deal of care and craftsmanship goes into fitting dental crowns. They are certainly worth the investment and work perfectly to preserve the health and appearance of compromised natural teeth.

Prices for crowns start from £700.00.

Crowns may sometimes require removal or replacement. We can offer this service at the practice. Please discuss treatment options with your dentist.
