A dental crown is a cap that covers and protects a damaged, broken, or heavily filled tooth. It helps restore the tooth’s shape, strength, and appearance so you can chew and smile confidently again.
Crowns are recommended when:
A tooth is badly decayed or broken
After root canal treatment to strengthen the tooth
A large filling has weakened the tooth
To improve the appearance of a discoloured or misshapen tooth
To support a dental bridge or cover an implant
Porcelain: Looks very natural, great for front teeth.
Zirconia: Very strong and aesthetic.
Metal/Gold Alloy: Durable and long-lasting (less visible for back teeth).
Restores function for chewing and speaking
Protects the remaining tooth structure
Looks and feels like a natural tooth
Long-lasting with proper care
Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM): Combines strength and appearance.
