Clear Planning
and Options
We explain why a crown is recommended, the material choices available, and what to expect at each visit.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom made covering that sits over a tooth to restore its strength, shape and appearance. It is commonly recommended when a tooth is too damaged or weakened to be reliably restored with a standard filling.
Crowns are designed to:
- Protect a tooth from cracking further
- Restore proper chewing function
- Improve the look of a damaged or discoloured tooth
- Support long term oral health planning
When Might You Need a Crown?
Crowns may be recommended when you have:
- A cracked or fractured tooth
- A large filling and limited natural tooth structure remaining
- A tooth after root canal treatment (often to protect it from fracture)
- A worn down tooth from grinding or bite pressure
- A tooth that needs cosmetic improvement in shape or colour
- A broken tooth where a filling would not be strong enough
If you are unsure whether a crown is necessary, we will talk you through alternativesand the risks of leaving the tooth unprotected.

Crowns vs Fillings (Why Not Just a Filling)
Fillings are ideal for smaller areas of decay or minor damage. However, when a tooth is significantly weakened, a filling may not provide enough protection from cracking under chewing forces.
A crown is often chosen when the tooth needs:
- Full coverage protection
- Reinforcement against bite pressure
- Long term durability for chewing and function
We recommend the most conservative option that still protects your tooth properly.
Your Crown Appointment (Step by Step)
- Assessment and planning
We examine the tooth, check bite forces, and may take X rays to assess tooth structure and root health. You will receive clear options and recommendations. - Tooth preparation
We gently prepare the tooth so the crown can fit securely. Comfort is a priority, and we explain each step before we do it. - Impressions / scanning
We capture accurate measurements so your crown is made to match your mouth precisely. - Temporary protection (if needed)
If your final crown is not placed the same day, we may use a temporary crown to protect the tooth. - Final crown fit and bite adjustment
We place the crown, check the fit, confirm bite comfort, and make fine adjustments so it feels natural.
Crown Materials and Aesthetic Options
Different crown materials may suit different teeth and bite situations. During your consultation, we will recommend the best option based on:
- Which tooth is being restored
- Bite pressure and grinding habits
- Aesthetic priorities (especially front teeth)
- Longevity and practicality
Our goal is to balance strength with a natural appearance.
Caring for Your Crown
Crowns are strong, but they still need good daily care. We recommend:
- Brush twice daily and clean between teeth daily
- Avoid using teeth as tools (opening packaging, biting hard objects)
- Attend routine check ups so we can review crown margins and bite wear
- Let us know if you grind your teeth or wake with jaw tension, a protective guard may help
If your crown ever feels high, loose, or sensitive, it is important to book a review early.
