A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. At our clinic, we offer a variety of options including:
If you’re interested in traditional tooth crowns or same-day crowns, our expert dentists ensure precise fit and long-lasting results.
Dental crowns offer a versatile solution for addressing a variety of dental concerns. Here’s how the team at Vilafortuny Dubai can help to benefit your smile:
Renewing Compromised Teeth:
Protecting Your Smile’s Foundation:
Step 1: Detailed Assessment
Using digital X-rays and 3D scans, we evaluate your dental health to determine if a dental crown is the right solution.
Step 2: Tooth Preparation and Temporary Crown
We gently reshape the tooth under local anaesthesia and place a temporary crown for protection while the final one is being made.
Step 3: Custom Crown Fabrication
State-of-the-art digital impressions are used to create a precise 3D model of your ceramic or zirconia dental crown and to match the exact colour and contour of your natural teeth.
Step 4: Final Placement
Your permanent crown is securely bonded and polished, restoring full function and appearance to your smile.
Dental crowns offer a valuable combination of functionality and aesthetics, restoring strength and beauty to your smile. Consult with your Vilafortuny Dubai dentist to explore if dental crowns are the right solution for your needs.
In general, crowns are advised for teeth with very large fillings, broken down teeth, teeth with insufficient tooth structure, teeth that have undergone root canal therapy, or teeth that are cracked, worn, deformed, or discoloured. Crowns can be entirely composed of ceramic, porcelain-fused to metal, gold, or metal.
A crown is put on a tooth to shield it from powerful mastication forces (bite). The current improvements in porcelain materials allow us to match the natural appearance of teeth and so deliver truly realistic results.
Need a faster solution? We offer same-day crowns using advanced CEREC technology, allowing you to receive your custom ceramic dental crown in just a few hours — no second visit required.
This is ideal for those who want a single-appointment crown with no compromise on quality or durability.

The cost of your dental crown depends on the specific type and material chosen. During your consultation, our dentists will discuss these options with you in detail and provide a personalised cost estimate based on your needs.
With proper care, dental crowns can last anywhere from 15 to 20 years. Maintaining excellent oral hygiene and avoiding hard or sticky foods will contribute significantly to the longevity of your crown. At Vilafortuny Dubai, we look after your oral health with regular preventative care.
Just like your natural teeth, dental crowns require good oral hygiene practices to prevent damage. Proper brushing and flossing minimize the risk of bacteria accumulating around the crown and causing decay. Regular dental checkups and cleanings at Vilafortuny Dubai are also crucial for maintaining your crown’s health.
The good news is that teeth whitening treatments won’t affect your dental crown! Since crowns are artificial teeth, they won’t change colour with whitening products. However, to ensure a uniform appearance, our dentists recommend whitening your natural teeth before placing your crown. This way, we can create a crown that perfectly matches your newly brightened smile.
The choice between a crown and a filling depends on the severity of the damage to your tooth. For smaller cavities, a filling might be sufficient. However, for larger cavities or teeth with significant structural damage, a crown offers a more durable and long-lasting solution to restore the tooth’s strength and functionality.
Dental crown placement is typically a comfortable procedure. Our dentists use local anaesthesia to numb the area, minimizing any potential discomfort. The benefits of a restored and strengthened tooth far outweigh any temporary discomfort you might experience.
Temporary crowns are used as a placeholder while your permanent crown is being crafted in the lab. Temporary crowns are typically made from a less durable material and may not fit as precisely or be as strong as the permanent crown. This is why it’s important to avoid hard or sticky foods while wearing a temporary crown. Additionally, wearing a temporary crown for too long can increase the risk of tooth damage. At Vilafortuny Dubai, we prioritise timely delivery of your permanent crown to ensure your comfort and optimal oral health.
