Personalised Dental Crowns from Your Local Dentists

Our dental crown dentists provide personalised dental crown treatment to restore damaged, weakened and heavily restored teeth, helping to improve their strength, function and natural appearance.

A dental crown, also known as a dental cap, is a custom-made restoration designed to protect and strengthen a damaged tooth while restoring its shape, bite and appearance. We offer metal crowns from £675, porcelain bonded crowns from £850, Emax crowns from £1,100 and zirconia crowns from £1,100, with laser gum contouring from £150 where clinically appropriate to enhance your smile.

We take the time to assess your oral health, discuss your treatment options and recommend the most suitable dental crown for your needs. Free 20-minute consultations are available for new patients.

When is dental crown recommended?

You may require a dental crown following a clinical assessment if a tooth:

Has extensive decay or structural damage
Is cracked, fractured or worn down
Contains a large or failing filling
Has undergone root canal treatment
Requires reinforcement to maintain function

Our dentists will assess your condition and explain the most suitable treatment options for your oral health

What happens during a dental crown appointment?

A dental crown appointment typically involves a clinical examination, and where required dental X-rays, to assess the tooth and surrounding structures. The tooth is then prepared, and impressions are taken to create a custom-fitted crown.

Once ready, the crown is fitted and adjusted to ensure a secure fit, comfortable bite and natural appearance. We will explain each stage of treatment so you know what to expect.

How long does a dental crown last?

The lifespan of a dental crown can vary depending on factors such as oral hygiene, bite forces and the material used. With appropriate care and regular dental check-ups, crowns are designed to provide long-term support for the tooth.

We will monitor your crown during routine examinations to ensure it continues to function effectively.

Porcelain Bonded Crowns

Suitable for front and back teeth, offering a balance of strength and a natural appearance.

Zirconium Crowns

Our Dental Crown Process

Consultation & Assessment

We’ll examine your tooth and may take digital X-rays where clinically required to determine whether a dental crown is the most suitable treatment.

Tooth Preparation & Impression

Your tooth is carefully prepared before digital or conventional impressions are taken to create a custom-made dental crown. A temporary crown may be fitted where appropriate.

Crown Placement & Adjustment

Your new dental crown is fitted, adjusted and securely bonded to provide a comfortable bite, natural appearance and long-lasting protection.
