If your tooth has become broken, badly decayed or damaged in such a way that a filling is not strong enough to support the tooth, then a crown may be recommended by your dentist as the most suitable treatment option for you.
A crown (also known as a 'cap') is a protective cover fitted over the existing structure of a broken or damaged tooth to restore function and appearance. There are different types of dental crowns, with metal porcelain crowns traditionally believed to be stronger, however with advances in modern dental technology, all-ceramic crowns are proven to be as strong and durable as metal porcelain crowns. This allows our dental surgeons to offer our Leicester patients the best of both worlds - a long lasting and natural looking solution.
To learn more about our dental crown procedures at our private practice, give our reception team in Leicester a call today. Our team will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have about dental crown replacement or fitting, and can advise you of the best time to visit. Call us now on 0116 2707 300.
In placing a dental crown that colour matches the other teeth, it is hard to see which one has been treated.
