Crowns

What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are custom-made caps placed over damaged or weakened teeth to restore their shape, strength, and appearance. At Egham Dental Care, we offer three main types of crowns:

Porcelain Bonded to Metal Crowns: A porcelain bonded to metal crown combines a strong metal base with a natural-looking porcelain exterior, offering both durability and a lifelike appearance.
Porcelain Crowns: A full porcelain crown is made entirely of ceramic material, offering a natural look that's ideal for front teeth and patients with metal sensitivities.
Gold Crown: A gold crown is highly durable and biocompatible, making it an excellent choice for back teeth where strength and longevity matter most.

Is a Dental Crown Right for You?

You may benefit from a dental crown if you have:

Protecting a weak tooth from breaking or holding together parts of a cracked tooth.
Restoring an already broken tooth or a tooth that has been severely worn down.
Covering and supporting a tooth with a large filling when there isn't a lot of tooth left.
Holding a dental bridge in place.
Covering misshaped or severely discolored teeth.
Covering a dental implant.

If you’re experiencing any of these issues, a dental crown might be the ideal solution to restore your smile.
