With proper planning and care, dental crowns can last many years. Longevity depends on factors such as bite forces, oral hygiene, and regular reviews.
Yes. Our crowns are designed to match the colour, shape, and proportions of surrounding teeth, so they blend naturally and seamlessly into your smile.
Crown procedures are carried out with an appropriate local anaesthetic. Patient comfort is prioritised at every stage.
Often, yes. Teeth that have undergone root canal treatment are more brittle and commonly benefit from crown protection.
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.

Dr Arman & Dr Amir always do a phenomenal job, I’ve been getting dental treatment from Dr Arman for 7-8 years now and travel from Wimbledon to come to this practice. So happy with their attention to detail & exceptional customer service!
As ever, amazing service!
Everyone is always so polite, so helpful, and explain everything to me and do work that I know I can rely on.
With a busy schedule, often out of the UK, I’m not the easiest patient, but I know I can always rely on Dental Arts :-)
Thank you to all the dentists and the whole team!
Happy Anniversary!
I had the best experience with the team at London Dental Arts and couldn’t be happier with my results! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to help me achieve the smile I’d been hoping for.
Dr Arman Barfeie guided me through every stage of my composite bonding procedure, making sure I felt informed and comfortable throughout. His attention to detail, care and artistry were to such a high standard, and he really took the time to create the natural-looking smile I wanted. It was really clear that he genuinely cares about the quality of his work and achieving the best possible results for his patients.
I also had teeth whitening, which I was really pleased with. The reception team were equally lovely, always friendly and welcoming, and happy to offer helpful advice on aftercare and the whitening process. I felt genuinely looked after by everyone.
What really stood out to me was how much the whole team listened to what I wanted and took the time to understand my needs. I walked away feeling so happy and confident with my results. I couldn’t recommend London Dental Arts more highly!
My appointments are always very pleasant and everybody there is very kind.
I have always been a bit scared of dentists, but Jasmine is the first one I have met that genuinely makes me feel like she has my best wellbeing at heart. She's kind, manages my expectations and listens to my limits and helps me manage my pain (if there is any) she's communicative and shows me what she's doing / explains things clearly. She's great. 10/10 do recommend.
