Dental Crowns in Heckmondwike
Protect and Restore Damaged Teeth
Cracked tooth? Weakened filling? Tooth worn down over time?
A dental crown can strengthen it and restore your bite.
At Kirklees Dental Centre, we provide custom-made dental crowns that look natural, feel comfortable and last for years. We treat patients across Heckmondwike, Batley, Dewsbury, Cleckheaton and Liversedge with careful, personal attention.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A crown is a tooth-shaped cover that sits over your natural tooth. It protects the tooth underneath while improving the way it looks and functions.
Here is what happens:
- We assess your tooth to check if a crown is the best option
- We gently shape the tooth so the crown fits snugly
- We take a mould or scan to create your custom crown
- While your crown is being made, we may fit a temporary one
- Once ready, we fit and adjust the final crown for comfort and strength
Crowns are usually made from porcelain, ceramic, or metal, depending on where the tooth is and what you prefer.
