What is a dental crown?
Your tooth's protective cover.
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over your entire tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and appearance. Think of it as a protective helmet for a tooth that has been damaged by decay, trauma, or root canal treatment.
At York House Dental Practice in West Byfleet, we craft crowns from premium materials to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Whether you need to protect a weakened tooth, restore a broken one, or improve the appearance of a discoloured restoration, crowns offer a durable, long-lasting solution.
Our experienced dentists will assess your individual needs and recommend the most suitable crown type for your situation — balancing aesthetics, durability, and budget.

Why choose
dental crowns in Surrey.
Dental crowns are one of the most versatile and reliable restorations in modern dentistry.
-
Natural appearance
Modern crowns are crafted to match the exact shade, shape, and translucency of your natural teeth — virtually indistinguishable from the real thing.
-
Strength & durability
Crowns protect weakened teeth from further damage and can last 15-20 years or longer with proper care.
-
Pain relief
Covering a damaged or cracked tooth eliminates sensitivity and pain, allowing you to eat and drink comfortably again.
-
Preserve natural tooth
Unlike extraction, a crown allows you to keep your natural tooth root — better for jawbone health and long-term stability.
-
Improved function
Restore full chewing ability and speak clearly again. Crowns rebuild tooth structure damaged by decay or trauma.
-
Confidence boost
Hide discolouration, chips, or misshapen teeth. Smile freely knowing your teeth look great.
Your crown journey:
five steps to a restored tooth.
Getting a crown is straightforward and pain-free. From your first consultation in West Byfleet to final fitting — we guide you through every stage.
-
Consultation & assessment
Your dentist examines the tooth, takes digital X-rays, and discusses your options. We explain crown types, costs, and expected outcomes.
-
Tooth preparation
The tooth is gently reshaped to accommodate the crown. Under local anaesthetic, this is completely painless. We take a digital impression or mould.
-
Temporary crown fitted
A temporary crown protects your tooth while your permanent crown is crafted by our expert dental laboratory (typically 2-3 weeks).
-
Crown fitting
Your permanent crown is checked for fit, bite, and aesthetics. Once perfect, it's cemented securely in place using dental adhesive.
-
Aftercare & review
We explain how to care for your new crown and schedule a follow-up if needed. Regular check-ups help ensure long-term success.
Two Appointments
Crown treatment typically requires two visits over 2-3 weeks. Between appointments, you'll wear a temporary crown to protect your tooth.

Dental crown questions,
answered by our dentists.
Common questions about dental crowns in West Byfleet and Surrey. Don't see yours? Call 01932 348864 or book a consultation.
-
How long does a dental crown take to fit?
The process typically requires two appointments over 2-3 weeks. At the first visit, we prepare the tooth and fit a temporary crown. Your permanent crown is then crafted in our laboratory. At the second visit, we fit and cement the permanent crown.
-
Does getting a crown hurt?
The tooth preparation is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you won't feel any pain during the procedure. Some mild sensitivity for a few days after treatment is normal and usually resolves quickly.
-
How long do dental crowns last?
With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, crowns typically last 15-20 years. Factors affecting longevity include the material used, where the crown is placed, and habits like teeth grinding.
-
What is the difference between crowns and veneers?
Crowns cover the entire tooth surface, while veneers only cover the front surface. Crowns are recommended for teeth that are significantly damaged, heavily restored, or need structural reinforcement. Veneers are ideal for cosmetic improvements to relatively healthy front teeth.
-
Can a crowned tooth get cavities?
The crown itself cannot decay, but the tooth underneath can. Good oral hygiene is essential — brush twice daily, floss around the crown, and attend regular check-ups to prevent decay at the crown margin.
-
What does a dental crown cost in West Byfleet?
Crown costs at York House start from £700, depending on the material chosen. All-ceramic and zirconia crowns are at the higher end of the range due to their superior aesthetics. We provide a detailed, itemised quote at your consultation with no hidden fees.
-
Do you offer finance for dental crowns?
Yes, we partner with a regulated finance provider to help spread the cost of treatment. Ask our team about available payment plans — we're happy to explain your options.
-
Can I get a crown on my front teeth?
Absolutely. For front teeth, we typically recommend all-ceramic or zirconia crowns for the most natural appearance. These materials closely mimic natural tooth enamel in translucency and shading.
-
What if my crown comes loose or falls off?
Contact us immediately. Keep the crown safe — it can often be recemented. Avoid chewing on that side until we see you. We'll arrange an appointment promptly to assess and resolve the issue.
