Dental crowns in Twickenham

    Strength where it is needed, detail where it shows.

    Dental crowns rebuild teeth weakened by large fillings, fractures or root canal treatment. At 2 London Road, each tooth is assessed for the most conservative reliable option first — sometimes an onlay or filling preserves more natural tooth.

    Who it suits

    When a crown may be appropriate

    A crown should solve a structural problem, not simply be the default. Material and preparation are chosen around the remaining tooth, bite and position in the smile.

    • A cracked or heavily filled tooth
    • A back tooth after root canal treatment
    • An old crown with a dark edge
    • A tooth worn down by grinding
    • A weak tooth at risk of fracture
    • A bridge or implant crown needing review

    How treatment works

    From first visit to finished smile

    01

    Assess and compare

    Examination, radiographs and bite checks establish whether a filling, onlay or crown offers the best balance of strength and tooth preservation.

    02

    Prepare and scan

    The tooth is numbed and prepared, then digitally scanned. A temporary crown protects it while the laboratory makes the final restoration.

    03

    Review the detail

    Shade, shape, contact points and bite are checked before the crown is fitted. Front teeth receive additional attention to translucency and texture.

    04

    Protect the result

    Hygiene, bite review and a night guard where grinding is present help protect both the crown and the tooth beneath it.

    Why choose us

    Restorative decisions without a one-material answer

    Preserve first

    An onlay or filling is considered before a full crown where it can predictably protect the tooth.

    Material matched to purpose

    EMAX is considered where optical detail matters; zirconia where load and strength are the greater concern.

    Whole-tooth planning

    The nerve, gum, bite and long-term cleansability are assessed alongside appearance.

    Common questions

    Asked at almost every consultation

    How much does a dental crown cost in Twickenham?

    Approved guide fees are from £1,050 for an EMAX crown and £1,150 for zirconia. Ceramic inlays or onlays start from £795 where a more conservative restoration is suitable.

    How long does a crown last?

    Ten to fifteen years is a common range, and well-maintained crowns can last longer. Gum health, decay risk, grinding and the amount of natural tooth remaining all affect lifespan.

    Is EMAX or zirconia better?

    Neither is universally better. EMAX can provide excellent translucency for visible teeth; zirconia offers high strength where bite load is greater. The recommendation should be specific to your tooth.

    Do I need a crown after root canal treatment?

    Back teeth often need a crown or onlay because they are more vulnerable to fracture. Front teeth may not always need one. The remaining tooth structure and bite determine the answer.
