What is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a permanent covering that is placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and enhance its appearance. Dental crowns can be made from a variety of materials including metal, porcelain, or a combination of materials, each designed to protect and preserve damaged teeth.

At Apollo Kolkata, our experienced dentists provide precise and effective dental crown procedures using advanced technology, ensuring the restoration seamlessly mimics the look and function of natural teeth.

After Root Canal Treatment: Teeth that have undergone a root canal often require crowns to reinforce their structure.
Tooth Discoloration: Crowns can be used to cover severely discolored teeth and improve aesthetics.
