Dental crowns are like little helmets for your teeth. They cover and protect a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are often used for a number of reasons, including:
Dental crowns can be made from different materials, including porcelain, metal, or ceramic. The type of dental crown you choose will depend on the location of the tooth and the biting surface in order to match your natural teeth perfectly. This ensures that your crown is not only functional but also as natural looking as possible.
Dental crowns offer a great solution for improving both the health and appearance of your teeth.
They serve both structural and cosmetic purposes, especially In cases where a tooth is damaged or decayed, a dental crown can be placed over it to provide protection and coverage. This not only restores the tooth’s functionality but also prevents further deterioration, so all in all a great long term solution.
Dental crowns protect damaged teeth
Structurally, they protect a weakened tooth. For example, teeth with fillings that keep breaking or root canal-treated teeth may be crowned to improve their longevity. They are also used to build up severely worn teeth from grinding or erosion.
Dental crowns cover up stained or visually unappealing teeth
Cosmetically, they completely mask how your tooth underneath looks. If you have large ugly fillings or severely stained teeth, a dental crown will block them out and freshen up the appearance.

Are you a little worried about what the dental crown procedure involves? Let us walk you through it – it’s much simpler than you might think!
Initial consultation – Your journey to a restored smile starts with a friendly consultation. During this visit, our expert dentist will examine your teeth, take X-rays, and discuss your dental history. We’ll determine if a dental crown is the best solution for your needs and create a personalised treatment plan.
Preparation – If a crown is right for you, we’ll begin by building a solid core for the crown to sit on and then ensure there is the space to place it on top. We’ll place a prototype crown to make sure we get the fit and aesthetics right.
Digital impressions – Using advanced digital imaging technology, we’ll take precise impressions of your tooth to allow us to design your custom crown with exceptional accuracy to ensure a perfect fit.
Hand-making the crown – Here’s where the magic happens! With our state-of-the-art tech and high-powered photography we send the details over to our Master Ceramist who’ll hand make the crown.
Fitting the crown – Once your crown is ready, we’ll carefully place it over your prepared tooth. We’ll check the fit, make any necessary adjustments, and then permanently bond it in place. Your tooth is now restored and ready to go.
Follow up – After your crown is placed, we’ll provide you with all the care instructions you need to keep it in tip top condition, and we’ll also give you advice on maintenance and upkeep.
Our dental clinic is based on Winton highstreet, but we offer private dental crown treatment to the whole of Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch and Dorset. We’re always happy to offer an initial telephone or video call consultation to better understand your concerns before you come and visit us.
The cost for root crown treatment will vary depending on the severity of your condition and the level of treatment required. A full breakdown of costs will be explained before any treatment is completed, and we have payment options available to help spread the cost. Prices can start from £956.
With proper care and maintenance, dental crowns can last between 10-40 years, and sometimes even longer. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene practices are essential for the longevity of your crown.
Not at all! Our dental crowns are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. We use high-quality materials that match the colour and texture of your existing teeth, making the crown virtually invisible.
Yes, once your dental crown is in place and you’ve adjusted to it, you can eat normally. In fact, having a dental crown can improve your ability to chew food more easily than before.
Caring for your dental crown, just like any other dental treatment, involves maintaining good oral hygiene. Brush twice a day, floss daily, and visit your dentist regularly for check-ups and cleanings. Avoid chewing on hard foods and objects to prevent damage to your crown.
