A dental crown is sometimes known as a ‘cap’. Crowns are an ideal solution to fix teeth that have been broken, weakened by decay or have a very large filling.

At our Birmingham dental practice we use crowns as an artificial restoration that fits over the remaining part of a prepared tooth, making it strong and giving it the shape of a natural tooth. Crowns are also great if you want to protect a root filled tooth or improve the appearance of discoloured fillings.
