Dental crowns are versatile tooth restorations. The protective cap encases the entire visible portion of the tooth to improve its strength, size and appearance.
Crowns are used for broken or decayed teeth that can no longer be fixed with dental fillings. Dental crown materials can be made of metal, full ceramic, or composite. The material used will depend on the reason you are getting the crown.
Whether you decide on a dental crown for improving the shape and alignment of your teeth or for strengthening a tooth, the procedure for the treatment is the same. A dental crown requires only two appointments. The first appointment involves the preparation of the tooth, and the second is for fitting the crown.

I might actually be nearly happy about my next visit 🤞🏼😆 Sudan Chakravarthy2022-02-19 Doctor Lee is a honest professional who treats his patients with compassion and care. joanne lin2021-10-09 Our family have already attended the EK dental surgery with Dr. Lydia for a couple of years. Dr. Lydia is our best choice after compared with other dentists, especially on children's dental care. She is very patient and very professional on children's noncooperation. She explained the treatment clearly and given us good advice. She is always gentle when checked teeth. She used a lot of strategies to help my son for relaxing and be comfortable while filling a tooth. My son was very resistant to see dentist because he had a bad experience in another clinics before, but Dr. Lydia was very patient and given my son a lot encouragement. I highly recommended Dr. Lydia Vanessa Joy Grecia2021-04-09 Great team. Highly recommended! Honey Glaze Rosalyn2021-03-22 Fantastic and caring dental team. Highly Recommended!
