A dental crown (sometimes called a tooth crown) is a restorative cap that fits over the remaining part of a damaged tooth, making your tooth stronger and giving it a more natural shape. They are used to repair broken or decayed teeth, ensuring that you can smile with confidence.
Dental crowns are designed to appear completely natural. At Vitality, we will always try to match your crown to your natural teeth.
With regular check-ups and good dental hygiene, dental crowns can last up to 15 years or more.
Dental crowns are usually made from ceramic, metal, or porcelain fused to metal. For more information, ask your dentist for specifics on your dental crowns.
