Best dentist experience!
I am usually very anxious when going to the dentist but doctor Ioana made me feel at ease and comfortable at all times. She takes time explaining every procedure and makes sure it is all painless. All staff are kind and professional! I highly recommend this practice.
Dental Crowns
Dental Crowns in Camden and London
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that is placed over the weakened tooth to cover and protect it. It helps in holding together and supporting the remaining tooth structure from any further damage. It is used to restore chipped, fractured or damaged tooth to its original size and shape whilst ensuring it matches the rest of your smile.
Dental crowns are highly durable and are usually made of metal like gold, porcelain or a combination of both metal and porcelain materials. Ceramic crowns or porcelain crowns can also be matched to the colour of your natural teeth to improve the overall teeth appearance.
Reasons for having Dental Crowns:
- To replace or cover a large filling
- Protect & restore a fractured or broken tooth
- To cover a dental implant
- To cosmetically enhance a discoloured or poorly shaped tooth
- To cover a tooth that has had root canal treatment
- To replace existing crowns
- Repair teeth in cases of trauma
- Realign your bite
Dental Crowns Procedure
Crown preparation usually requires two visits.
First Appointment: Examining and preparing the tooth
At your first visit, the dentist will clean the tooth to remove any decay or broken bits in the area. Your tooth will be prepared and shaped to be able to receive the crown. The dentist will then take an impression of your teeth which will then be used to create a temporary crown. The temporary crown is cemented to the tooth and checked for occlusion (patient’s bite) to see whether the teeth are meeting correctly. The dentist will also choose the correct shade of crown at this stage to match your natural teeth
Second Appointment: Placement of the permanent crown
At your second visit, the temporary crown is removed and the tooth is cleaned. Your new custom-made crown is carefully checked then cemented onto the prepared tooth. The dentist will then closely observe that the fit is correct as well as the bite. Upon completion, you will be given post-care instructions on maintenance that you must carefully follow.

FAQs
Your crown should usually last between 5-15 years. However, if you maintain good oral hygiene and have regular dental check-ups with your dentist then they may last for 25-30 years.
We can place a tooth coloured crown which will match the colour of the surrounding teeth so that it doesn’t stand out.
Dental Crowns usually require two visits to the dental clinic.
In the first appointment, the dentist will prepare your tooth and take an impression or digital scan of the tooth and place a temporary crown.
In the second appointment, the temporary crown is taken out and the dentist will now place the final crown.

Testimonials
Really happy with the service received today! All staff were very accommodating, from my initial phone call to when I left the building Dr. Diana was especially insightful and helpful and my teeth look and better than they have for years. I highly recommend, and I’ll be definitely going back 🙂
Had an absolutely amazing experience at NW1 Dental care, I hadn’t had a professional clean in years and had let my teeth get into quite a state. I had been very anxious about seeing a dentist after having bad experiences in the past but I bit the bullet after seeing an ad for NW1 on instagram then reading some positive reviews. My dentist Ioanna was lovely and chatty and talked me through everything, gave me an immaculate clean and offered some advice on products and methods for keeping better care of my teeth all without condescension. It was more like being at a spa than being at the dentist, I had never had such a positive experience with a dentist before. 100% would recommend.
Great! Amazing and friendly staff, 10/10 recommend!
Literally, the best dental clinic in the UK (probably even the world). I cannot express in words how amazing NW1 dental care and its staff are. From the lovely receptionists to the highly qualified dentists and dental assistants, this place is fantastic. I wish I had found them before. The whole team is extremely welcoming, warm and caring. They have always gone the extra mile to ensure that you feel comfortable and that all your queries have been answered. Unlike, many other practices out there, NW1 dental care actually CARES about its clients. As well as, provides the best offers and five-star treatments.
Will definitely be recommending all my friends and family to pay them a visit!!!
All measures have been taken to make attending appointments as safe as possible, which has allowed me to get issues fixed before they get worse. All the staff are friendly and I love my dentist (Dr Hudda). I am also impressed because a few years ago, my mother was visiting and she broke a tooth and within an hour of it breaking, they fit her in and fixed it.
I want to thank Dr Anima for all her hard work, she has made my teeth look amazing. I can smile without being embarrassed of my teeth. Anima is very professional, friendly and gives the best advice of care and how to keep teeth clean for a lifetime. I would recommend Anima to anyone who wants amazing teeth with that Colgate smile.
Great to see a new face in the surgery. The new dentist Dr Anima is very attentive and seems genuinely interested in any oral hygiene. I look forward to my next visit.
Lovely Surgery. The lady on the front desk is very friendly. Painless procedure + the dentist was very friendly and thorough.
Really easy and straightforward, Anima gave me great advice and got exactly the results I was after. Thank you.
