A crown is a type of dental restoration which covers the entire tooth. It is used to restore a tooth if it is badly broken down and to minimise the risk of further breakage. We do this by minimally trimming the supporting tooth in all dimensions, and encapsulating the trimmed tooth within the crown.

There are numerous types of white crowns available at Malden Dental Care. For example:

• Emax crown
• Porcelain bonded to metal crown
• Zirconia crown
• Dentine bonded crown

The dentist will discuss which is the best option for you, and you can choose what type of crown you could like.
