When is a crown considered?

A dental crown covers the visible part of a tooth and can help restore strength, shape and function. It may be recommended when a tooth has lost a significant amount of structure or needs additional protection.

A crown may be useful for

A heavily filled or weakened tooth
A cracked or fractured tooth
A tooth after root canal treatment
Severe wear or loss of tooth structure
Selected cosmetic or bite-related concerns

What the process involves

Assessment. We examine the tooth and confirm whether a crown is the right option.

Preparation. The tooth is shaped to create room for the restoration.

Impression or scan. The crown is made to match your bite and surrounding teeth.

Fitting. The final crown is checked for fit, comfort and function before it is secured.

What are crowns made from?

Material choice depends on where the tooth is, the bite forces involved, appearance and the clinical situation. Options may include ceramic, zirconia, porcelain-fused-to-metal or metal restorations. Your dentist will explain which options are appropriate for your case.
