Restore damaged, broken or heavily filled teeth with precision-crafted dental crowns. Replace missing teeth without implants using a fixed dental bridge. Natural-looking, strong and long-lasting.
A precision-made cap that saves and strengthens a damaged tooth — or a bridge to replace missing ones — both matched perfectly to your natural smile.
We examine the tooth, take X-rays and discuss the best type of crown for your situation — whether ceramic, zirconia or porcelain-fused-to-metal.
The tooth is shaped under local anaesthetic to create space for the crown. A precise impression or digital scan is taken and a temporary crown fitted.
Your crown is crafted in a specialist laboratory from premium materials, shade-matched and shaped to fit perfectly with your bite.
The crown is checked for fit and bite, then permanently bonded. Your tooth is fully restored — strong, functional and beautiful.
We use only high-quality dental ceramics — E-max lithium disilicate and zirconia — which offer exceptional strength, translucency and natural appearance. These materials are far superior to older metal-based crowns and are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
For bridges, we work with specialist dental technicians to ensure the pontic (artificial tooth) matches your natural teeth perfectly in colour, shape and bite alignment.
Every crown and bridge is individually designed and fabricated to fit your tooth precisely.
Tooth-coloured porcelain and ceramic restorations matched perfectly to your surrounding teeth.
Crowns restore full function to cracked, broken or heavily filled teeth, preventing further damage.
Precise digital impressions ensure an accurate, comfortable fit — no messy moulds.

With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a quality ceramic crown can last 15–25 years. Avoiding grinding your teeth (or wearing a night guard if you do) will significantly extend its lifespan.
The tooth is prepared under local anaesthetic, so you should not feel any pain during the procedure. Some mild sensitivity afterwards is normal and usually settles within a few days.
A veneer covers only the front surface of a tooth and is used for cosmetic purposes. A crown covers the entire tooth and is primarily used to restore a damaged, weakened or heavily filled tooth.
In most cases yes — root canal-treated back teeth become brittle over time and are at risk of fracture. A crown protects the tooth and significantly extends its life.
A bridge is best suited to replacing one or two adjacent missing teeth. For longer spans or multiple missing teeth, we may recommend dental implants as a more appropriate long-term solution.
Dental crowns at The Yardley Clinic start from £550, depending on the material chosen and the complexity of the tooth; bridges are quoted individually. We provide a clear written quote before any treatment, and interest-free finance options are available to help spread the cost.
A crown is usually completed over two appointments, around one to two weeks apart. At the first we prepare the tooth and take a digital scan; at the second we fit your permanent crown. You'll wear a natural-looking temporary crown in between.
We use premium, metal-free all-ceramic and zirconia crowns that are highly durable and colour-matched to blend naturally with your surrounding teeth. We'll recommend the most suitable material for your specific tooth at your consultation.
Care for a crowned tooth just like a natural one: brush twice daily, floss around it and attend regular check-ups and hygiene visits. Avoid biting very hard objects, and if you grind your teeth a nightguard will protect both the crown and your natural teeth.
