If a tooth is damaged or decayed, a crown can be used to restore appearance.

Effectively a tooth-shaped cap, a crown can cover what remains of your real tooth. Crowns can be designed to cosmetically blend in with the rest of your natural teeth.

What are the benefits of having a crown?

A crown restores the appearance of a damaged tooth or teeth. Usually crafted from porcelain or metal (or a blend of both), crowns also serve to support and strengthen damaged teeth.

How is a crown fitted?

A crown fits over the top of your original tooth, which first needs to be prepared by your dentist. After shaping what remains on your original tooth, a mould will be taken to make sure your crown is the ideal fit. The crown is then fixed in place with dental cement during a follow-up appointment.

Does having a crown hurt?

Having a crown will feel similar to having a filling. Local anaesthetic is used to prepare your tooth for a crown, minimising any discomfort.

Are crowns a definitive solution?

Crowns are classed as a definitive solution to significantly damaged or decayed teeth. With regular dental care, crowns can last for many years before needing to be repaired or replaced.
