Dental Crowns Treatment in SDA Market, Hauz Khas | Aura Care Clinic
Restore your tooth's strength, function & smile. A dental crown is a custom-designed restoration placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to bring back its original shape, strength, and natural appearance. It completely covers the visible portion of the tooth above the gum line, making it both a protective and cosmetic solution.
At Aura Care Clinic, we offer advanced dental crowns treatment in SDA Market, Hauz Khas, South Delhi using high-quality materials like zirconia and IPS ceramic to restore your teeth with durability, precision, and aesthetics.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is like a protective helmet for your tooth. When a tooth becomes too weak due to decay, fracture, or other treatment, a crown is placed to:
- Restore full functionality
- Prevent further damage
- Improve appearance
- Protect the life of the tooth
Unlike fillings, which repair only a part of the tooth, a crown covers the entire tooth surface, offering complete protection.
Signs You May Need a Dental Crown
Many patients delay treatment because they don't recognise the early signs. You may require a crown if you experience:
Structural Damage
- Broken or chipped tooth
- Cracked tooth causing pain while chewing
- Severely worn-down teeth
Advanced Decay
- Large cavity that cannot be treated with fillings
- Weak tooth structure after deep decay removal
In such cases, dental fillings may not be sufficient, and crowns are the ideal solution.
Post Root Canal Treatment
- Teeth become brittle after RCT
- Crowns protect the tooth from fracture
Cosmetic Concerns
- Discoloured or misshaped teeth
- Uneven smile
For cosmetic concerns, you can also explore dental veneers.
