Benefits of Dental Crowns
Why crowns are one of the most reliable restorations in dentistry.
Restore Function
Crowns can reinforce cracked, broken or root treated teeth and help you chew more comfortably.
Natural Appearance
Colour matched crowns are designed to blend with your existing teeth and look as natural as possible.
Long-Lasting Results
With proper care, crowns last 15-25 years. Some last a lifetime.
Protect from Further Decay
Full coverage seals and shields the remaining tooth structure from bacteria.
Restore Full Function
Eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence. No dietary restrictions.
Your treatment journey, step by step.
Initial Assessment
We examine your tooth, take X-rays if needed, and discuss whether a crown is the best treatment option.
Tooth Preparation
Under local anaesthetic, the tooth is carefully reshaped so the crown can fit snugly over it. Impressions are taken.
Temporary Protection
A temporary crown is placed while your permanent restoration is being crafted.
Final Placement
The custom crown is checked for fit, colour and comfort, then bonded in place.
Aftercare & Review
We provide guidance on caring for your crown and schedule a follow-up if needed.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about adult braces in London.
Our metal-ceramic crowns start from £500 (£250 for members). Porcelain and zirconia crowns are priced individually based on the case. You'll receive a clear, transparent quote before any treatment begins.
With proper care, crowns can last 15-25 years, and sometimes a lifetime. Longevity depends on the material chosen, your bite forces, and how well you maintain your oral hygiene.
It depends on the tooth's location and your aesthetic goals. Porcelain is ideal for front teeth due to its translucency. Zirconia offers very high strength for back teeth, while metal-ceramic is a reliable, cost-effective option.
In most cases, yes. Root-treated teeth can become brittle over time. A crown prevents the tooth from fracturing and significantly extends its lifespan.

When Do You Need a Dental Crown?
Crowns solve a variety of dental problems. Here are the most common reasons patients need them.
Large filling or cavity
When over 50% of the tooth is filling, a crown provides better protection and longevity than replacing the filling again.
After root canal treatment
Root-treated teeth become brittle. A crown prevents fracture and extends the tooth's life significantly.
Cracked or fractured tooth
A crown holds the tooth together, preventing the crack from spreading and saving the tooth from extraction.
Worn down teeth
From grinding (bruxism) or acid erosion. Crowns restore proper height and protect remaining structure.
Cosmetic transformation
Change the shape, size, or colour of a tooth for a more beautiful smile.
Support a dental bridge
Crowns on adjacent teeth anchor a bridge to replace missing teeth.
Cover a dental implant
The crown is the visible part of an implant, restoring function and aesthetics.
Severely discoloured teeth
When whitening will not give the desired result, crowns can offer a long term cosmetic solution.
Crown vs Veneer vs Filling
Which restoration is right for you? Your dentist will discuss expected longevity in your individual case and how to look after your restoration.
| Feature | Dental Crown | Porcelain Veneer | Composite Filling |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coverage | Covers the entire tooth | Covers only the front surface | Fills a specific cavity or chipped area |
| Best For | Heavily broken, root-treated, or cracked teeth | Cosmetic changes to shape, size, or colour | Small to medium cavities or minor chips |
| Tooth Preparation | Requires reshaping the whole tooth | Minimal preparation of the front enamel | Minimal preparation, only removing decay |
| Longevity | 15-25 years | 10-15 years | 5-7 years |
Every patient is different. We will recommend the most conservative and long-lasting option for your specific clinical needs.

Looking after your crown
- Avoid chewing on hard foods (ice, boiled sweets) for 24 hours after fitting
- Mild gum tenderness for a few days is normal
- Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste
- Floss daily — crowns need interdental cleaning like natural teeth
- Wear a night guard if you grind your teeth
- Attend 6-monthly check-ups so we can catch early issues
- Contact us if the bite feels high or the crown feels loose
