Dental Crowns

Dental Crowns in Surrey

If you are looking to restore decayed or damaged teeth, dental crowns may be a suitable option. A dental crown is a tooth-coloured cap that is fixed on top of a damaged tooth. Restoring a tooth with a crown will allow you to regain normal chewing function, protect a weakened natural tooth, and improve the overall appearance of the mouth.

What Are Dental Crowns Made From?

Dental crowns can be made from metal, porcelain, or ceramic. While metal crowns are very strong, many people dislike the shiny metal colour that stands out in the mouth. A more popular choice for a crown is one made from porcelain or ceramic, as they can be colour-matched to the natural teeth.

How to Take Care of Your Dental Crown

Once your dental crown is fitted, it functions just like your natural tooth. We advise that you take care of your crown, just as you would your natural teeth, by brushing them twice a day. We also recommend flossing the teeth to remove any food particles that become trapped between the gums and teeth.
