Dental Crowns & Onlays in London

A crown is a tooth-shaped cap that completely covers the visible portion of a tooth, restoring its strength, shape, size and appearance. An onlay is a more conservative restoration that covers only the biting surface and one or more of the cusps — preserving more of your natural tooth structure.

At our London practice, we always recommend the most conservative option that will reliably restore your tooth. For many patients, a modern e-max onlay can be a beautiful, long-lasting alternative to a full crown.

With good oral hygiene, regular hygienist visits at our London clinic, and avoidance of habits like nail-biting or chewing on hard objects, modern ceramic crowns and onlays typically last 10–15 years or more. Many of our patients enjoy their restorations for considerably longer.
