A dental crown fully caps and protects a damaged tooth — restoring its strength, shape, and natural appearance with a precisely fitted ceramic restoration.

A dental crown is needed when a tooth is too damaged, cracked, or weakened for a filling to restore properly. It encases the entire visible tooth, protecting it from further damage and restoring full biting function.
At Aliva Aesthetics, we fabricate ceramic and zirconia crowns that match your natural tooth shade with extraordinary precision. Modern crowns are indistinguishable from natural teeth — durable, comfortable, and beautiful.
Crowns are indicated in specific situations where the tooth needs full coverage and protection.
A large cavity that leaves insufficient healthy tooth structure for a reliable filling.
A tooth with a significant crack that a filling would not hold together safely.
Root canal-treated teeth become brittle — a crown protects them from fracture.
A large piece broken from the tooth — a crown restores shape and strength fully.
Teeth severely worn by grinding or acid erosion requiring restoration of height and form.
A discoloured, misshapen, or previously restored tooth improved with a ceramic crown.
We select the crown material and type based on the tooth's position, biting forces, and cosmetic expectations.

Translucent, natural-looking — ideal for front teeth and visible smiles.

Extremely strong with good aesthetics — ideal for back teeth under heavy bite forces.

Porcelain fused to metal — a strong, cosmetic option where cost is a priority.

Covers only the damaged part of the tooth — more conservative than a full crown.

Dr. Varun Reddy's MDS in Prosthodontics is the specialty dedicated to dental restorations, including crowns. With 3,500+ crowns placed over 12+ years, he brings exacting standards to every preparation and fitting.
Consultations are clear and thorough. We explain why a crown is needed, show you the shade selection process, and walk you through the two visits involved.
“A severely cracked molar was saved with a ceramic crown at Aliva rather than extracted. The crown fits perfectly, looks completely natural alongside my real teeth, and the procedure was far more comfortable than I expected.”
“My old metal crown was visible every time I smiled and I had been self-conscious for years. Aliva replaced it with an all-ceramic crown that is indistinguishable from my natural teeth. The colour matching is exceptional.”
“A root canal-treated tooth needed a crown to protect it and Aliva's ceramic crown has been solid and comfortable for over a year. The preparation was precise, the fit is perfect, and it has never given me any sensitivity.”
“Front tooth crown at Aliva after an accident — the shade matching to my natural teeth is so precise that people ask which tooth was damaged when I tell them. The cosmetic result from a functional procedure is outstanding.”
“Three crowns placed across my back teeth at Aliva after years of wear and grinding. All three bite perfectly, have been comfortable since day one, and the material strength has held up completely to my clenching habit.”
“The crown preparation at Aliva was the most conservative I have experienced — minimal tooth reduction, perfect impression, and a crown that arrived fitting first time with no adjustments needed. Excellent precision dentistry.”
Common questions about dental crowns — answered honestly.
The tooth is numbed thoroughly for preparation. Afterward there may be sensitivity for a few days which settles as you adapt. The temporary crown keeps the tooth protected in between visits.
Typically two — one for preparation and impression, one for fitting once the lab has fabricated the crown, usually 1–2 weeks later.
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, ceramic and zirconia crowns typically last 10–15 years or longer.
Yes — we shade-match carefully to your adjacent natural teeth. Modern ceramic crowns are translucent and lifelike.
Usually yes — root canal-treated back teeth become brittle and are at high risk of fracture without crown protection.
Brush and floss normally, including along the gum margin of the crown. Avoid very hard foods that could chip it. Regular check-ups allow us to monitor it.
