Dental crowns, also known as dental caps, are used to cover or encase a damaged or decayed tooth. They are custom-made to fit over the partial or entire visible portion of the tooth above the gumline.

Crowns are often recommended in the following situations:

  • To protect a weak or cracked tooth from further damage.
  • To restore a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment.
  • To cover a misshapen or severely discoloured tooth.
  • To support a dental bridge or implant.
  • To enhance the appearance of a tooth.

Dental crowns can be made from various materials, including ceramic, metal alloys, or a combination of both. Ceramic crowns are popular because they can be colour-matched to blend with the natural teeth, providing a more aesthetically pleasing result.
