Strong & Natural Dental Crowns

Restore damaged teeth with durable, natural-looking crowns.

About the Treatment

Dental crowns are protective caps designed to strengthen and restore teeth that are weakened, broken, or heavily filled. The treatment usually takes two appointments: first to shape the tooth and take impressions or digital scans, and then to fit a temporary crown while your custom crown is made.

At your second visit, the final crown is bonded securely in place. Crowns provide excellent durability, look natural, and are especially important for teeth that have had root canal treatment.

They do require some tooth reshaping and are more costly than fillings, but they offer significant long-term benefits. Alternatives may include large fillings or onlays, though these are not always suitable. After your crown is placed, you can brush and floss normally, but take extra care while wearing your temporary crown.

Key Benefits

Benefits & Why It Works

  • Covers and seals damaged tooth structure

  • Prevents fractures and further wear

  • Distributes biting forces evenly

  • Restores full chewing function

  • Provides long-term stability

Dental crowns work by fully encasing the tooth, protecting it from damage while restoring strength, shape, and function.

I had terrible experiences with dentists growing up, so as an adult I only go to dentists under duress. Tried 4 dentists and I finally struck gold with Dr Asa and his team! Now I have no issues going for my yearly check, I also am going through Angel aligners treatment because it's actually more affordable ($4,000 k cheaper than what I was quoted elsewhere). Dr Asa is super gentle and explains things well, his assistants must be telepaths because they always know what's needed, and Hola at reception is a lean mean efficient machine πŸ’ͺ Oh and he has Netflix on the ceiling for distraction πŸ˜† highly recommend if you're a wimp like me.

I hate going to the dentist! Dentist Roy was gentle and did a great job on 2 fillings, I couldn't feel my face so it was great that they said come back tomorrow for adjustment if my bite wasn't right. Its great they said that without me having to ask. 10/10.

I’ve been to a couple of dentists but this one is the best! Great staff who took care of my needs. The principal dentist Mr Asa Vete took the time to listen to my worries and explained my options. Much appreciated! Thank you and highly recommend.

I was feeling so nervous and embarrassed about my teeth after pregnancy and Dr Asa was so caring and understanding. I felt super validated and we have made a plan to fix my teeth in a way that works both financially and time wise for me. Thanks team!

Made my first visit back to the dentist after 10 years. Full mouth check up explained clearly, needed a root canal but the team made sure I was comfortable. Puts YOU first before money. Such a great team!
