Strengthen, Protect, and Restore Your Teeth

A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a damaged, decayed, or weakened tooth. It restores the tooth's shape, size, and strength while improving its appearance. Crowns are a trusted solution for restoring smiles and maintaining long-term oral health.

When is a Dental Crown Needed?

You may need a crown if you have:

  • A cracked or broken tooth

  • Severe tooth decay

  • A worn-down tooth

  • A large filling with little tooth structure remaining

  • Discoloured or misshaped teeth

Types of Dental Crowns

Choosing the right crown depends on your needs, tooth location, and budget. Here are the most common types:


Porcelain Crowns

Best for: Front Teeth

Pros: Natural-looking, blends well with surrounding teeth

Cons: Less durable than metal-based crowns


Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) Crowns:


Best for: Front or back teeth

Pros: Strong and aesthetic, offers a balance of durability and appearance

Cons: May show a dark line at the gum line over time


Zirconia Crowns

Best for: Any tooth

Pros: Extremely durable and biocompatible, highly aesthetic

Cons: Slightly more expensive


Gold Crowns

Best for: Molars (back teeth)

Pros: Long-lasting, resists wear and fracture

Cons: Highly visible, less aesthetic


Resin Crowns

Best for: Temporary or cost-sensitive cases

Pros: Affordable

Cons: less durable, prone to wear and fracture


What to Expect During the Procedure

  1. Consultation & exam: Your dentist will examine your tooth and recommend the best crown type.


  2. Tooth preparation: Your tooth is reshaped, and an impression is taken.


  3. Temporary crown: A temporary crown protects the tooth while your permanent one is made.


  4. Crown placement: The custom crown is fitted, adjusted and cemented in place.
