What is a dental crown?
A crown or onlay is a type of dental restoration used to fix teeth that have been broken, weakened by decay or contain a very large filling.
What are they made up of?
Dental crowns can be made from various materials like gold,ceramic,composite and porcelain tosuit your individual needs as not all materials are suitable for everyone. Some of the materials allow the dental crowns to be made to match the colour of your natural teeth, providing you with discreet tooth restorations.
When is the dental crown advised?
A crown could be a good solution for you if you have some discoloured fillings and would like to improve their appearance. Crowns can be used to replace these to give you a more appealing smile.
Additionally, if you have had root canal treatment you will need a crown or onlay to protect the restored tooth, allowing you to eat and bite down on it as if it was a real tooth. Crowns are also used to anchor a bridge or denture firmly in place in the mouth.
What is the procedure?
The tooth that needs restoring is prepared and an impression is taken.
A crown is made in the dental laboratory to fit the tooth precisely and match the neighbouring teeth.
The crown is then fitted securely to allow chewing and smiling with confidence.

Fantastic service! I took my autistic son to them today they couldnt of been more caring , made us both feel very welcome and calm. It was the first time my son ever had an x-ray. The lady spoke calmly to him all through it and the dentist was also a lovely lady. My son came out of there full of smiles telling me they are really nice. He wants to keep going here which makes me as his mum happy.I totally trust this dentist they are the best dentist we have been to 🙂

I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Saldkhar for repair to a chipped tooth. Both Dr. Saldkhar and her dental assistant were extremely professional and thorough in their work. I am extremely happy with the final result. All staff at the practice are extremely knowledgeable and friendly in their respective roles. I am more than happy to provide referrals in future should anyone require a holistic dental practitioners.
