Dental Crowns Croydon
A dental crown (or tooth cap) is a custom made cover over your own tooth, restoring function and aesthetics.
dental crown procedure
Getting a dental crown usually takes two appointments. At the first visit, the dentist examines and prepares the tooth by gently reshaping it so the crown can fit securely. An impression or digital scan is then taken and sent to a dental lab where your custom tooth crowns are made. A temporary crown is placed to protect the tooth in the meantime.
At the second appointment, your dentist removes the temporary crown and fits and bonds the permanent crown, checking the shape, bite, and colour to ensure it feels comfortable and looks natural. The result is a strong, natural-looking tooth that restores both function and appearance.
types of dental crowns
Crowns can be made of:
- All Porcelain Crowns – a very natural aesthetic appearance, achieving a translucency and opalescence, particularly useful for front teeth. It avoids “metal margins” seen after the gum recedes over time, and can chemically bond with your tooth enamel making it strong. Also reduced hot/cold sensations due to lack of electrical conductivity.
- Porcelain Bonded to Metal Crowns
- Gold Crowns

Dental crowns typically last 10–15 years, but with good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups they can last 20 years or longer.
The lifespan depends on factors such as the crown material (porcelain, ceramic, metal, or zirconia), how well you care for your teeth, and habits like grinding or chewing hard foods. Brushing twice daily, flossing, and visiting your dentist regularly can help extend the life of a dental crown.
