WHY CERAMIC CROWNS?
A ceramic crown is a tooth-coloured cap that covers a damaged or weak tooth. It restores strength, shape and appearance, and blends naturally with the teeth around it.
THE PROCESS
Getting a crown usually takes two visits, and we make sure you are comfortable at every step.
We check the tooth and its roots to confirm that a crown is the right option.
Under local anaesthesia, the tooth is gently shaped, and a scan or impression is taken.
A temporary crown protects your tooth while your ceramic crown is being made.
The ceramic crown is fitted, checked for bite and colour, and bonded in place.
THE BENEFITS
Holds a cracked or weak tooth together.
Colour matched to your neighbouring teeth.
Brings back strength for everyday eating.
Durable, with good care and regular check-ups.
