Dental Crowns & Bridges in Melton

what is a crown?

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped, custom-made “cap” that is placed over a damaged or broken tooth to protect the underlying tooth from fracture and to make it look like a healthy normal tooth.

Your dentist may recommend you getting a dental crown if you have

To shield teeth that are cracked or worn down

Replace huge fillings that are not long-lasting

Stopping future tooth damage, such as cracking or fracturing

After receiving root canal therapy to lengthen the tooth's life and strength.

To disguise crooked or discoloured teeth for better aesthetics

Dental crowns are made of many different materials and your dentist will discuss your preferences with you. The most popular options are Porcelain and zirconia crowns as they are very life-like and strong and can last many years. We also offer metal/gold crowns in some cases.
