Cosmetic Crowns
Blend Strength & Beauty with Cosmetic Crowns in Kolkata
When teeth are damaged, worn, or discolored, a cosmetic dental crown offers both restorative strength and aesthetic refinement. At Smile For All Dental Clinic, we specialize in creating custom-made cosmetic crowns—also called caps—that fully cover your tooth to restore shape, function, and appearance, giving you a confident, healthy smile.
What Is a Cosmetic Crown?
A cosmetic crown is a protective, tooth-shaped cap crafted from high-quality materials like ceramic or zirconia. These crowns are matched to your natural tooth color and appearance, enabling them to restore functionality while maintaining a seamless, lifelike look.
Who Needs Cosmetic Crowns?
Cosmetic crowns are ideal if you have:
- Severely decayed or weakened teeth
- Broken or fractured teeth
- A tooth that’s undergone root canal therapy
- Deep staining or misshapen teeth that whitening or bonding can’t fix
- The need to complete a dental implant restoration
These crowns are designed for front-facing or highly visible teeth, where appearance and function are both crucial.
