Dental Crowns
If you have a damaged or decayed tooth that needs replacing, our custom made dental crowns are the most natural-looking and durable solution for you. Boost your confidence and keep your smile in place with these artisanally crafted restorations.
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap, which is secured to your underlying tooth structure to form a durable tooth replacement solution. The best part about our ceramic dental crowns is that they are custom-made to seamlessly blend with your natural teeth.
There are different types of dental crowns, varying mainly on the material used. These include:
- All-Resin/Composite Crowns: Made out of resin or composite materials (a combination of plastic-type materials), they are an aesthetically pleasing solution to restoring your smile. They mainly function as temporary crowns while you wait for your permanent crown to be fabricated and are less resilient to the forces of biting and chewing, making them more vulnerable to fracture. Their lifespan typically spans 3-5 years.
- Ceramic Crowns: Also known as Porcelain crowns, these crowns are made using ceramic materials that mimic the appearance of your natural teeth. Their aesthetically appealing appearance makes them an excellent choice for front teeth. Zirconia crowns are a popular type of ceramic crown, offering enhanced durability and resistance to fracture. They are metal-free and ideal for patients with metal sensitivities or allergies.
At Ceramic Implant Centre, we offer bespoke, natural-looking ceramic crowns that blend seamlessly with your smile.
Dental crowns do a lot of the heavy lifting, protecting your teeth from damage and decay. They provide other benefits, such as:
- Restoring the functionality of your bite.
- Improving the appearance of your smile and boosting confidence.
- Longevity with proper care.
What Happens During a Dental Crown Procedure?
During your first visit, we will examine your eligibility for a dental crown, assess your oral health and take into consideration your smile goals to create a tailored treatment plan.
The remaining tooth structure will be modified to allow enough space for the Porcelain jacket to hold around the tooth.
Your dental impressions will be taken with a digital scanner and sent to our experienced lab technicians, who will carefully fabricate your bespoke ceramic crown.
Once your custom crown is ready, it will be secured to your tooth and you are able to eat on it straight away.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
With good care, your crown can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years. This ultimately depends on the type of dental crown too. Signs of wear and tear may indicate the need for a crown replacement.
Since you will be under the effects of local anaesthesia, you may experience numbness, along with sensitivity in your gums. This is quite normal and will fade away in a few days. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers to ease any discomfort.
Proper care and maintenance are necessary to keep your dental crown in good condition. This includes:
- Brushing your teeth at least twice a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush
- Flossing your teeth once daily
- Avoiding hard, crunchy and chewy foods
- Visiting the dentist for regular checkups every 6 months
- Wearing a mouthguard if you grind or clench your teeth
