Crowns and bridges are one of the most common dental restoration work in dentistry. There are variety of crowns available including porcelain fused to metal and full porcelain (jacket) crowns and CAD CAM Crowns.

​

Crowns are an ideal way to rebuild teeth which have been broken, or which have been weakened by decay or a very large filling.The crown fits over the remaining part of the tooth, making it strong and giving it the shape and the contour of a natural tooth.

​

​

Why have Dental Crowns?

When a tooth is cracked, extensively decayed or damaged, a filling cannot withstand the forces. Thus a crown is a better option to serve the need.

Crowns can help to whiten, reshape, and realign existing teeth.

​

For instance:

• You may have discoloured fillings and would like to improve the appearance of the tooth.

• A root filling needs a crown to protect it as tooth becomes brittle after Root canal Treatment.

• It may be needed to help hold a bridge or denture firmly in place.

​

Our Dental Crown Procedure

Dental Crown treatment is arranged in the following steps according to the results of the consultation:

• Preparation of the teeth
