Dental crowns and bridges in London

Lab-made caps that restore broken or root-treated teeth, and bridges that span gaps.

A dental crown is a cap that fits over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. Crowns are one of the most common dental treatments - used after root canals, for badly broken teeth, or to replace large failing fillings.

Dental crowns in London typically cost £400-£900 privately. The price depends mainly on the material - porcelain and ceramic crowns cost more than metal or porcelain-fused-to-metal options. Same-day CEREC crowns, made in the practice using digital scanning, are available at some London practices and usually sit at the higher end of the range. For a full breakdown of treatment costs, see our London dental cost guide.

On the NHS, crowns fall under Band 3 at £332.10. NHS crowns are functional but you may have less choice over materials and appearance. For more on NHS dental access, see our NHS dentist London hub.

A well-fitted crown should last 10-15 years, sometimes longer with good care.

You may also be interested in dental implants for replacing missing teeth, or cosmetic dentistry options including veneers and teeth whitening.
