A dental crown—often referred to as a “cap”—is a bespoke restoration designed to fit completely over a damaged, decayed, or weakened tooth. Crowns are utilized to restore a tooth’s natural shape, strength, size, and appearance while protecting the remaining healthy structure beneath. At The Dental Gallery in Ealing, dental crowns are crafted with extreme precision using high-grade porcelain, ceramic, or metal-bonded materials to deliver results that are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth.
Led by principal dentist Dr Roham Barez, the clinic provides tailored crown treatments for a wide variety of clinical needs, including restoring heavily filled teeth, repairing fractured enamel, protecting teeth after root canal therapy, or improving cosmetic alignment and discolouration. Through meticulous design and careful fitting, the team ensures a comfortable bite and a long-lasting, beautifully restored smile.
Fortifies broken, heavily filled, or root-treated teeth, preventing further fractures or decay.
Custom-shaded and shaped from premium porcelain or ceramic to match adjacent natural teeth seamlessly.
Enables you to chew, bite, and speak with complete comfort and stability.
Built using high-durability materials designed to withstand daily chewing forces for many years.
A dental crown is a custom-made protective cap fitted over a compromised tooth. It is recommended when a tooth is severely decayed, cracked, heavily filled, root-treated, or visually discoloured and misshapen.
Fitting a crown typically takes two visits. During the first visit, the dentist prepares the tooth, takes impressions or digital scans, and fits a temporary crown. At the second appointment, your custom permanent crown is permanently cemented into place.
Not at all. Modern porcelain and ceramic crowns are crafted to replicate the natural colour, shape, and translucency of your natural enamel, making the restoration virtually undetectable to the naked eye.
No. The treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic, ensuring the area is completely numb and the entire procedure is comfortable and pain-free.
You care for a crown just as you would a natural tooth—by brushing twice daily, flossing regularly around the base of the crown, avoiding biting extremely hard objects, and visiting your dental hygienist for routine check-ups.
