Zirconia / e.max Porcelain Crown

A tooth-coloured crown that covers and protects a damaged, heavily filled or root-treated natural tooth, restoring its shape, strength and appearance. Sobota House of Dentistry offers high-strength zirconia and e.max all-ceramic crowns matched to your natural teeth. Crowns suit teeth that are too compromised for a simple filling, and porcelain bridges are also available to replace a missing tooth using the neighbouring teeth for support.

A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a prepared natural tooth to rebuild it when too much structure has been lost to decay, fracture, a large old filling or root canal treatment. By encasing the tooth, a crown restores its strength and function while recreating a natural shape and shade. Sobota House of Dentistry offers all-ceramic options — zirconia, valued for its strength, and e.max lithium-disilicate, valued for its lifelike translucency — so the choice can be tailored to whether the tooth is at the front or back of the mouth. Treatment usually involves preparing the tooth, taking an impression or digital scan, and fitting the finished crown made by the laboratory to match your bite and neighbouring teeth. A temporary crown may protect the tooth in the interim. Once fitted, the crown is checked for comfortable contact and adjusted as needed. Crowns are well suited to teeth that are cracked, worn, extensively restored or root-treated and at risk of further breakdown. For a missing tooth, the clinic also makes porcelain bridges, which span the gap using the adjacent teeth as anchors; these are quoted individually because the cost depends on the number of units and the materials and technology chosen. The dentist discusses the most suitable option, material and shade during planning so the result is both durable and natural-looking.
