Dental crowns

Engineered, natural-looking restorations for your smile.

Dental crowns are used to protect teeth that have been weakened, damaged, or heavily restored. At London Dental Arts, crowns are not viewed as simple coverings, but as carefully engineered, natural-looking restorations designed to work harmoniously with your bite, surrounding teeth, and long-term oral health.

As a specialist-led dental clinic in South East London, our approach to dental crowns focuses on precision, proportion, and predictability. Whether patients attend from Forest Hill, Lewisham, Dulwich, or nearby areas, treatment is guided by experience and careful judgement rather than speed or routine.

What is a dental crown?

A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that fits over a tooth to restore its strength, shape, and appearance. Crowns are commonly recommended when a tooth is too damaged or weakened to be restored with a filling alone.

Crowns may be used to:

Protect cracked or heavily worn teeth.
Restore teeth following root canal treatment.
Replace large or failing fillings.
Improve the appearance of discoloured or misshapen teeth.
Support long-term bite stability.

At London Dental Arts, crowns are only recommended when they add genuine value and can be integrated predictably into the wider dental system.

Crowns planned with prosthodontic experience

Dr Arman Barfeie is our prosthodontist, a discipline focused on the restoration and replacement of teeth with particular attention to function, bite, and long-term durability. His background plays a central role in how crowns are planned and delivered at London Dental Arts.

Rather than restoring a single tooth in isolation, crowns are designed with consideration for:

Bite forces and jaw movement.
Adjacent teeth and restorations.
Gum health and tissue levels.
Long-term wear patterns.
Aesthetic balance within the smile.

This level of planning and detail helps ensure crowns look natural, feel comfortable, and remain stable over time.

Advanced technology for accurate results

London Dental Arts uses advanced digital and diagnostic technology to support accuracy and predictability when planning dental crowns.

These tools allow us to:

Assess how teeth function during movement, not just at rest.
Design restorations that integrate smoothly with the bite.
Reduce guesswork and improve long-term comfort.
Visualise outcomes before treatment begins.

Forest Hill patients should know that our technology is used to support better decision-making, not to rush care or replace clinical judgement.

What to expect from crown treatment

Crown treatment typically involves careful assessment, considered decision-making, and precise execution. While timelines vary depending on the tooth and complexity involved, patients are always guided clearly through each stage.

Treatment planning focuses on:

Preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible.
Ensuring a secure, comfortable fit.
Achieving a natural appearance that blends with surrounding teeth.
Providing realistic expectations around longevity and maintenance.

Patients from across South East London value knowing what to expect and why each step is recommended.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How long do dental crowns last?

With proper planning and care, dental crowns can last many years. Longevity depends on factors such as bite forces, oral hygiene, and regular reviews.

Do crowns look natural?

Yes. Our crowns are designed to match the colour, shape, and proportions of surrounding teeth, so they blend naturally and seamlessly into your smile.

Is crown treatment painful?

Crown procedures are carried out with an appropriate local anaesthetic. Patient comfort is prioritised at every stage.

Will I need a crown after root canal treatment?

Often, yes. Teeth that have undergone root canal treatment are more brittle and commonly benefit from crown protection.

Crowns Designed to Last, Not Just to Look Good

If you’ve been advised that a crown may be needed, or you’re experiencing problems with an existing restoration, our team is here to help. Care begins with a clear, unhurried assessment and an honest discussion around what’s better for your teeth in the long term.

I started my teeth transformation journey with London Dental Arts in 2024 and I finally completed it today. I couldn’t wait to write this review because I left feeling extremely happy!I joined the practice scared of the dentist and nervous about starting the process of achieving my dream smile. Today I leave not only with my dream smile but also genuinely happy to go to the dentist.My Invisalign journey with Dr Al completely transformed my smile (attached are my before and after photos because the results truly speak for themselves!). I also completed composite bonding with Dr Arman today and will share photos soon.Throughout my journey I’ve had internal teeth whitening on a dead tooth, root canals, hygienist appointment, and fillings all done gently and pain-free. Honestly, 10/10 service with no faults at all.A special shoutout to Monica on reception, who makes every visit feel so personal and welcoming. She remembers everything about our conversations each time I come in it’s incredible considering how many patients she sees. She truly makes you feel like you’re in safe hands from the moment you walk through the door.Invisalign initially felt daunting I wasn’t confident in my smile but wasn’t sure I was ready for what seemed like a chore. I definitely overthought it because the journey was 100% worth it.Thank you to Dr Arman for creating such a beautiful practice and for guiding me through my smile journey from start to finish. He is gentle, informative, and really takes the time to understand exactly what you want, using scans and advanced technology to show you your future results early on. This journey has genuinely changed my life.Massive thank you to the entire team you’re amazing! 💫

It was my daughter's first visit to the dentist. I was very nervous about my daughter, but we received highly qualified services. My daughter really enjoyed the visit and said she would gladly come back again. As a mother, this experience is very important to me. I am very sorry that I do not remember the doctor's name (I was very nervous), but I would like to thank her and the entire team for their truly high-quality and professional work. We will gladly return. Thank you so much.

I recently had my initial check-up and hygiene appointment with Jasmine and she was absolutely amazing. She explained everything in detail, made me feel completely at ease, and was incredibly thorough throughout.Priscilla, the nurse, was lovely as well, very friendly and reassuring, which made the whole experience even better.Such a professional and welcoming team. I’d highly recommend this practice!

Today I saw Jasmine and Priscilla as the second part of a 2 course treatment which involved various scans and start of deep cleaning on the first visit,also leading to the necessity of today's visit which involved 2 fillings, descaling and the continuation of the deep clean. Jasmine is very knowledgeable and friendly and puts you at ease straight away, explaining in detail the procedure involved and always giving you the opportunity to ask any questions. I was very pleased with the quality of the work done, and attention to detail. I would highly recommend London Dental Arts and Jasmine as an excellent dentist to visit, although all the staff are very friendly and professional indeed.

My last visit to a Dentist was 29 years ago due to him breaking my jaw in two places taking a wisdom tooth out.Anxiety was extremely high to say the least !My visit a month ago was great, all the staff very very friendly and the practice was immaculate.The dentist I saw talked me through my scan in detail and took time to make sure I understood as well as after care advice.Today rebuilt my trust in a dentist.I had a lovely lady called Christina who took her time to make me feel comfortable she also talked me through the whole process and stopped regularly to ask if I was ok.Honest I must have been the most anxious person she’s met. I would highly recommend this dentist for the fantastic work they do along with the exceptional expertise of their staffThank you so so much.

After a long period of research and many recommendations, we finally met Dr. Arman Barfeie, Specialist Prosthodontist and Implantologist, who was exactly the expert we were looking for to treat my mother.From the first moment, the reception was warm and professional, and the consultation was very reassuring. Dr. Arman took the time to explain everything clearly, and his advice was honest, accurate, and tailored to my mother’s condition.Dr. Arman’s professionalism, precision, and ethical approach truly stand out. As a media professional with connections to many doctors, several specialists strongly recommended Dr. Arman as one of the best experts in complex dental and implant cases. Thankfully, we visited him today and the results were excellent.I highly recommend Dr. Arman Barfeie to anyone looking for advanced dental treatment, especially implant and restorative work. A truly outstanding experience.

I had such a wonderful experience at London Dental Arts in Forest Hill, it honestly stands out from any dental clinic I’ve been to. The space itself is immaculate: super clean, modern, and spacious, which makes you feel instantly comfortable. The reception team are genuinely the nicest and most attentive people - they look after you so well, almost like a hotel concierge service. It really is a different level of care from the moment you arrive.Their system is brilliant too. You have your own online account to check appointments and payments, and if you need to reach them, you can either call or message on WhatsApp. They’re incredibly responsive, which makes everything so easy.Dr. Al was my Invisalign specialist, and I couldn’t be happier with both the service and the results. Before choosing London Dental Arts, I visited three other clinics for consultations. Al was the only one who took the time to properly explain the process, assess whether I’d see real results, and show me similar cases. He was honest, straightforward, and transparent about process & pricing, their initial consultation fee was the lowest of the three, and the overall cost was still one of the most reasonable.Throughout the treatment, Al was attentive, supportive, and patient with all my detailed questions (and there were many!). He never made me feel rushed, always explained everything clearly, and has an excellent bedside manner. He’s as detail-obsessed as I am, which gave me so much confidence in his care.So far, I’ve completed my Invisalign treatment (the results are even better than I hoped for!) and had air polishing done a couple of times. I’ll be trying their general dentistry next because, honestly, I can’t see myself going anywhere else now.Highly recommend London Dental Arts, Forest Hill; exceptional care, modern approach, and a truly wonderful team from start to finish. Thank you!

The dental surgery is very clean, warming and welcoming! Both receptionist were very lovely - thank you! The hygienist, Amy was really really good! She explained the whole process to me, asked me good questions and always made sure I was comfortable the whole entire time. I hate dentist but Amy is by far the best I’ve ever had and I will certainly be going back to her personally.

I had an excellent experience with dental therapist Daniel Nuciatelli. He is by far one of the most professional and personable individuals I’ve encountered in any healthcare setting. His warm and approachable manner immediately puts you at ease, and his genuine care for patients truly stands out. He combines expertise with kindness, taking the time to explain everything clearly and offering thoughtful advice for maintaining oral health. His friendly and sociable nature makes each visit not only comfortable but actually enjoyable. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-quality care delivered with compassion and professionalism.

Fantastic dental experience and I would strongly recommend this wonderful practice to anyone. I attended my first appointment yesterday and was seen by Daniel. I am usually really dental phobic as I find hygiene appointments painful, however both Daniel the Hygienist and the dental nurse were incredibly patient. They had a very calm, caring, friendly approach which immediately put me at ease. Their excellent attitude had such a positive impact on me. I was amazed as it was the first time that I was able to tolerate a hygiene appointment without pain relieving injections! The Hygienist was so thorough and I was so pleased with the result. The reception staff were also friendly and professional. In addition I loved the environment, it was so clean and comfortable and reminded me of a spa! I will definitely be returning, I am genuinely really impressed with the care that I received

I had an excellent experience with Dr Daniel Nuciatelli . From the very first consultation, he was attentive, thorough, and genuinely committed to understanding my concerns. He explained every step of the treatment clearly, which made me feel completely comfortable and confident in his care.The clinic is well-organised, welcoming, and equipped with modern facilities, which added to the overall sense of professionalism. What impressed me most was Dr Daniel’s attention to detail and the way he combined technical expertise with a very human, caring approach.I would highly recommend Dr Daniel Nuciatelli to anyone looking for a dentist who is not only highly skilled but also trustworthy and compassionate.

I just had my first hygiene appointment at this practise and am thoroughly impressed! Firstly, I would like to say all members of staff are incredibly polite and very warm (including those at reception, apologies as I did not get your name). The practise itself is spotless and inviting. A huge thank you to Daniel and Anna for my treatment - my teeth look and feel great, and I felt so comfortable throughout the whole appointment. During the treatment, they were very friendly, everything was explained thoroughly and I was extremely happy with the clean. I also appreciate Daniel giving me great dental care advice after the treatment. I would recommend this practise to anyone and it deserves all of the wonderful reviews it has received and more.Looking forward to my next appointment, thank you again!

I can’t thank Dr Arman enough! I came in with a really painful tooth and he sorted it out so quickly with a beautiful restoration. The whole experience was just fantastic to say the least. The clinic has a really relaxed feel from the welcoming receptionist, Monika,and the nurse, Chandra. Dr Arman is such a calm, reassuring dentist. I felt totally at ease the whole time. So grateful to be out of pain now, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great dentist who can deliver 5* results. Thank you so much!

This dental practice offers the best services I have ever experienced. The reception staff, as well as the dental team are always warm and welcoming, and very responsive to any queries I have. There is a consistent pleasant atmosphere whenever I visit.I have been coming to Dental Arts for the past year, initially referring myself to the practice with a concern about a damaged premolar tooth. This tooth needed to be extracted and replaced with an implant.As part of the process, I also underwent a bone graft procedure, as bone loss had been identified in the detailed X-ray scan I was shown. The final result was excellent, the new implant feels incredibly natural and comfortable, as if I never had a missing tooth in the first place.In addition I have been visiting frequently for routine hygienist appointments which have been a comforting experience.I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the staff, and to Dr. Arman in particular for the positive experience I have had.
