Protecting and Restoring Your Tooth
Dental crowns are used to restore and protect teeth that have been weakened by decay, damage, or large fillings. A crown covers the entire tooth, helping to strengthen it while improving its shape and appearance.
At Harwood Dental Care, we design crowns that blend naturally with your smile. Our focus is on restoring function, comfort, and confidence while maintaining long-term oral health.

Crowns
Durable Protection With a Natural Finish
A crown acts like a protective cap over your existing tooth. It restores structure, protects against further damage, and allows you to chew comfortably again.
We carefully match the colour and shape to your surrounding teeth so the result looks natural. Treatment is planned thoroughly to ensure long-term durability and comfort.

What to expect
Crown treatment usually involves preparing the tooth, taking impressions, and fitting a custom-made restoration. A temporary crown may be placed while your final crown is being made.
Once ready, the crown is securely fitted and adjusted to ensure comfort and proper bite alignment.

“We have traveled from Cheshire to visit Harwood Dental Care team for many years. So worth the distance !! Dipesh is empathetic, accommodating, knowledgeable and understands each of our individual needs. We feel really looked after and wouldn’t go anywhere else.”

“After finishing my final treatment I have to say I am absolutely delighted with my new smile. After my initial consultation where I told Dipesh what I wanted to achieve. I am Thankful for your guidance. All of the team have been kind and helpful and truly professional throughout my journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Harwood dental to everyone. Trust the process and you too will be smiling, on the inside and out.”

“I cannot thank Dipesh and the team at Harwood dental enough. I came to them with the worse looking veneers you’ve ever seen and in so much pain and discomfort I was at breaking point. Dipesh listened and really cared about my situation, sat me down and reassured me that things could be fixed and I could have my smile back. After a lot of time, patience and absolute skill Dipesh took away my awful veneers and created me an amazing smile again. For anyone looking for new veneers or in a similar situation as me, I genuinely couldn’t recommend Harwood dental enough.”
